PM to reply on 'Motion of Thanks' in Rajya Sabha today

 NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is all set to reply to the Motion of Thanks to the PNew Delhi:resident's Address at 2.00 pm in Rajya Sabha today, February 9, during the ongoing Budget Session of the Parliament. "Reply by the Prime Minister will be at 2.00 pm tomorrow," said Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar after the last speaker addressed on the motion on Wednesday.

The debate on the motion of gratitude to the President's Address in Rajya Sabha concluded on February 8.

On January 31, the first day of the budget session, President Droupadi Murmu addressed both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha in joint session. However, the opposition slammed the President's address.

Droupadi Murmu said that India has a government that is "stable, fearless, and decisive," working for all classes without discrimination and giving thrust to "virasat" (heritage) as well as "vikas" during the "Amrit Kaal" to build a developed India. She touched on a number of issues in her maiden address to the joint sitting of Parliament, including defence, space, women's empowerment, and the importance of public involvement during the "Am (development). Murmu discussed how the administration is fighting corruption head-on since it is the "greatest opponent of democracy and social justice."

Earlier in the day, in response to a vote of gratitude in the Lok Sabha, Modi claimed that the President's inspirational speech to both Houses had provided the country with guidance.

"President’s speech sparked the "Nari Shakti" (women power) of India, boosted the tribal populations' self-confidence, and instilled a sense of pride in them. She provided a thorough outline of the country's "Sankalp se Siddhi." "said the prime minister. The PM also discussed the initiatives taken by his government, noting that there is optimism and hope for India on a global scale and that the changes were implemented out of conviction rather than coercion.

He asserted that India is the mother of democracy, that criticism is similar to a "shuddhi yagya," and that constructive criticism is essential for a robust democracy.

The Prime Minister made veiled jabs at Rahul Gandhi, who had delivered a speech during the discussion on Tuesday attacking the government over the Adani issue, and said that some of the comments were well received by the audience.

"Observing occurred yesterday. Following a few speakers' comments, a few people were gleefully exclaiming, "Ye hui na baat." Perhaps they got good sleep and couldn't wake up (on time). "Ye keh keh ke hum dil ko behla rahe hain," "wo ab chal chuke hain," and "wo ab aa rahe hain" have been uttered about them "stated PM Modi.

When the Prime Minister began speaking in the House, Rahul Gandhi wasn't there. Later, he arrived in Lok Sabha.

PM Modi also made reference to comments made about the President by Congressman Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, for which he later offered an apology.

"Some individuals stayed away when Preisdent's Address was taking place. Even the President was insulted by a tall leader. They showed hostility towards ST. The sense of hatred that was hidden inside surfaced when such things were stated on television. A letter was later written, and an effort was made to save oneself "explained PM Modi.

Following PM Modi's response, the Lok Sabha adopted the resolution of thanks to the President's address.

Rahul Gandhi, a Congressman, later claimed that PM Modi had refused to respond to questions during the discussion because he was "protecting" Gautam Adani, an industrialist.

"The PM's speech did not satisfy me. But it has made the reality clear. His remarks made no mention of an investigation (into the Adani Group in the wake of the Hindenburg report). It is evident that the PM is defending Gautam Adani "He said.
