‘Introspect’: PM Modi’s Message To Unruly MPs Ahead Of Budget Session

As the Budget Session of Parliament started on Wednesday, a day before the interim Budget 2024, PM Modi in his address sent a message to ‘unruly MPs’ and called for introspection.

Referring to the women’s reservation bill that was passed in the new Parliament bill, PM Modi said, “On January 26 too, we saw a display of women empowerment. Today, President Droupadi Murmu will address the session and tomorrow Nirmala Sitharaman ji will present the interim Budget. This is a festival of Nari shakti.”

In his address, PM Modi also took a swipe at MPs who were accused of disrupting the parliamentary proceedings as he said, “In the last 10 years, MPs did what suited them in Parliament. But I must say that those who are ‘habitual offenders’, those who have the habit of doing ‘cheerharan’ of democracy should introspect at the last session. They can even ask the people of their constituency whether the people remember them for that.”
