Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday called on NDA MPs to adhere to parliamentary rules and decorum, learning best practices from senior members. His comments followed accusations against Rahul Gandhi for delivering a 'most irresponsible' speech.
During an NDA MPs meeting, Modi highlighted his humble origins and took a swipe at the Nehru-Gandhi family, emphasizing that he, a 'chai-wala,' has become prime minister for a third consecutive term. This marked a shift from the past, where members from outside the prominent family received little recognition, according to sources.
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju informed the media that Modi encouraged MPs to regularly attend Parliament, study issues thoroughly, and maintain constituency connections. Although Modi didn't directly mention Gandhi's speech, he stressed that a prime minister's message is meant for all.
