Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge Criticises Modi Government, Expresses Doubts About New Parliament's Impact

In a scathing critique of the Modi government, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday urged for a shift in political strategies rather than anticipating significant changes with the construction of a new Parliament.

During his address in the Rajya Sabha, he commented, "Change the way you do your politics, nothing new will happen if we shift to a new Parliament."

Furthermore, he highlighted the significance of the Constitutional values, which had been secured through great sacrifices, and called upon the Central government to concentrate its efforts on improving the conditions within the country.

In his address during the special session of Parliament, the Leader of the Opposition expressed, "Constitutional values earned after much sacrifice and difficulty.”

He added, “I urge the treasury to focus on improving the country's conditions, show compassion, and emphasize the importance of providing employment opportunities."

Kharge referenced the words of Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime Minister, asserting that the "absence of a strong Opposition means that there are significant drawbacks in the system."

The Congress President further stated, " If there is no strong Opposition, it is not right. Now, that there is a strong Opposition, the focus is on weakening it through ED, CBI...Take them (into their own party), put them in a washing machine and when they come out all clean, make them permanent (in one's own party).”

"You can see what is happening today. Prime Minister comes to the Parliament rarely and when he does he leaves after making it an event," he added.

 

The five-day special session of Parliament officially started at 11 a.m. on Monday. This session is being conducted within the old Parliament building. 

The plan for Members of Parliament to shift to the new building is scheduled for Tuesday, which marks the second day of this special session.

In an earlier statement to the media outside Parliament, Prime Minister Modi shared that all key decisions related to India's ambitious goal of achieving developed nation status by 2047 will be discussed and made within the new Parliament building.
