The winter session of the parliament began today. For the first day, 3 bills are listed for final consideration and passing. In the Lok Sabha, the Banking Laws (Amendment) Bill and the Railways (Amendment) Bill, 2024 will be discussed.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi attacked the opposition in his address ahead of the beginning of the winter session of the Parliament. “Opposition blinded by self-centered agenda,” he said. Hitting out at the opposition, he said, for their political gain, a handful of people, are constantly trying to control the Parliament by creating disorder. Their aim is only to stall the house, he added. “The people of the country count all their actions and when the time comes, they also punish them.”
“The most painful thing is that the new parliamentarians bring new ideas and new energy and they do not belong to any one party but to all parties. Some people usurp their rights and they do not even get the opportunity to speak in the House,” PM Modi said.
“Those rejected 80-90 times by people do not allow discussions to take place in the Parliament. They neither respect the spirit of democracy nor do they understand the importance of people’s aspirations. They have no responsibility towards them. They are unable to understand them and the result is that they never live up to people’s expectations.”
Reflecting on India’s growing prominence on the global stage, PM Modi said, “The world looks at India with hope. At such a crucial time, our discussions in Parliament can further enhance India’s standing before the world. India rarely gets opportunities like this, and it is our duty to ensure that the trust voters place in democracy and the Constitution is upheld through meaningful work in Parliament.”
