Prime Minister Narendra Modi will speak in both Houses of Parliament on the Motion of thanks to the President's address today. The speech of the Prime Minister comes a day after two of NDA allies attacked the Central government in the Lower House. While the TDP disrupted Lok Sabha proceedings demanding special facilities for Andhra Pradesh, another partner Shiv Sena said it was necessary for the BJP to take the parties supporting the ruling alliance into confidence.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will speak in both Houses of Parliament on the Motion of thanks to the President's address today. The speech of the Prime Minister comes a day after two of NDA allies attacked the Central government in the Lower House. While the TDP disrupted Lok Sabha proceedings demanding special facilities for Andhra Pradesh, another partner Shiv Sena said it was necessary for the BJP to take the parties supporting the ruling alliance into confidence.
Participating in the debate on the motion of thanks to the President's address, senior Shiv Sena leader Anandrao Adsul said it seems that the government does not belong to the NDA any more, but only to the BJP. He said when Prime Minister makes a pitch for 'sabka saath, sabka vikas', the BJP should also take its allies into confidence. Pointing to the TDP members standing in the Well of the Lok Sabha holding placards, he said it seems "they were also not taken into confidence."
On Monday, the Rajya Sabha also witnessed heightened political drama when the Opposition accused the BJP-led government of polarising the country. BJP chief Amit Shah also made his maiden speech in the Upper House. Shah took on senior Congress leader P Chidambaram for his 'pakoda' jibe and said it was better to sell pakodas than being unemployed.

I know the Government's efforts to eliminate corruption & black money are hurting a select group of people. Today, people who served as Chief Ministers are in jail. However powerful one was, if one has been corrupt, that person will be punished. We are in an era of honesty, says PM Modi
Employment is increasing but you have closed your eyes as you are busy singing your songs. Atal ji ne kaha hai ‘chhote Mann se koi bada nahi hota aur toote Mann se koi khada nahi hota’. A government that talked about 21st century could not bring an aviation policy. Then what kind of a 21st century did they talk about, the one with bullock carts, says PM Modi
Since Kharge Ji spoke about railways and Karnataka, let me tell the truth about the Bidar-Kalburgi rail line. The project was approved by the Vajpayee Government and from 2004 till 2013 nothing was done. It is when a Government under BS Yeddyurappa gave approvals work could begin, says PM Modi
The NDA Government has changed the work culture in the nation. Projects are not only thought about well but also executed in a timely manner. The NDA government is building more roads than the previous one. We have given a strong boost to the infrastructure sector across the nation, says PM Modi
