LIVE | Modi takes ‘baalak buddhi’ dig at Rahul, attacks Congress

PM's speech in Lok Sabha comes a day after Rahul's no-holds-barred attack on BJP on issues ranging from Manipur violence to Agnipath scheme to NEET


Prime Minister Narendra Modi delivered a nearly 2.5-hour address on Tuesday (July 2) in reply to the Motion of Thanks on the President’s Address in the Lok Sabha. He started around 4.10 pm and continued till about 6.30 pm even as the Opposition shouted "Manipur-Manipur" slogans throughout his speech.

Modi's reply came a day after Rahul Gandhi’s fiery maiden speech as the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha. On Monday, Rahul launched a no-holds-barred attack on the BJP on a plethora of issues, ranging from the Manipur violence to the controversial Agnipath scheme. He accused BJP leaders of dividing people along communal lines, drawing massive protests from the treasury benches, with PM Modi slamming the Congress leader for “calling the entire Hindu community violent”.

The debate on the Motion of Thanks, initially scheduled for Friday, faced delays and disruptions after the Opposition MPs protested against the irregularities in the NEET examination, demanding discussions on it.
