Striking a combative tone in his customary address before the beginning of Parliament's winter session, Modi said these people did not succeed in their intentions of stalling legislative business, and the country was now punishing them. His remarks came before a session in which the Opposition intends to corner the government over the bribery allegations against Adani Group and the violence in Manipur.
"Unfortunately, certain individuals try to hijack Parliament for political gains, resorting to disruptions and chaos. Though their tactics ultimately fail, the public watches their behaviour closely and delivers justice when the time arrives," Modi said.
The National Democratic Alliance posted a historic victory in Maharashtra, grabbing an almost four-fifths majority in a major state where it was expected to face a close contest, even though it lost to the INDIA bloc in Jharkhand.
Modi urged parliamentarians to allow the smooth functioning of both the Houses, particularly since it marks 75 years of the adoption of India's Constitution.
"This session of Parliament is special in many ways. The most important thing is that entering the 75th year of the journey of our Constitution is in itself a very bright occasion for democracy...." he said.
