New Delhi: As soon as Prime Minister Narendra Modi started speaking on Tuesday to reply to the discussion on the motion of thanks on the President’s address in the Lok Sabha, the opposition MPs started creating a ruckus. Despite repeated warnings by the Lok Sabha Speaker, the ruckus by the opposition MPs continued. This ruckus was not for a short while but the noise continued from the time PM Modi started speaking till he finished speaking. Amidst this ruckus and noise, an incident happened which is now being discussed not only in the House but is also being widely discussed on social media.
In the middle of his speech, PM Modi offered a glass of water to the opposition MPs who were disrupting his speech by coming into the well of the Lok Sabha and raising slogans against the government. One opposition MP even grabbed the glass of water offered by PM Modi. This action of PM Modi quickly became a trending topic on social media. Many people appreciated his move.
BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawala in a sarcastic post said that dictator Modi offers water to opposition MPs who interrupted his entire speech. A user wrote that when opposition MPs were in the well and shouting to stop him, PM Modi offered them water in response. This is called answering in your own style.
After the Prime Minister spoke, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh moved a motion condemning the violation of parliamentary decorum by opposition members during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s address in the Lok Sabha, which was approved by voice vote. Singh moved the censure motion after Prime Minister Modi’s reply to the discussion on the motion of thanks brought on the President’s address.
