Prime Minister Narendra Modi will reply to the discussion on motion of thanks to President Pranab Mukherjee’s address to the joint sitting of Parliament in the Lok Sabha on Tuesday. The House concluded discussion last night.
The motion was moved by Tourism Minister Dr Mahesh Sharma.
Initiating the discussion, Sharma hit out at the opposition saying that politics should not be played with religion and security forces. He also criticised the opposition for seeking proof about the surgical strikes carried out by the Army last year across the LoC.
Sharma highlighted the achievements of the government and said it is committed to provide good, transparent and corruption free governance.
He said schemes launched by the Centre are focusing towards poor, farmer and deprived sections of the society.
Launching a scathing attack on the opposition for not supporting the Prime Minister on demonetization issue, Sharma said they should have shown magnanimity by hailing the move.
