JAIPUR, Nov 27: Senior Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad today asked why Prime Minister Narendra Modi do not highlight his Government’s achievements in the Parliament.
“Why doesn’t the Prime Minister speak about the achievements in the Parliament? Why is he highlighting the achievements in desert areas? Because lies cannot be said in Parliament and there is no one to verify his claim in the desert,” Azad told reporters at the Congress office here.
He said Modi was the first Prime Minister of the country who did not present the account of his foreign visits in the House. “Whenever a Prime Minister returns from a foreign visit, he briefs the Parliament about the visits and his meetings… But Modi never tells that to the Parliament. Parliamentary traditions are being broken,” the Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha said.
Azad said Modi did not reply to any questions in the Parliament. “If he works so much, they why doesnt’ he speak in the Parliament?” (PTI)
