I am confident that as we enter new Parliament building, we will go there with new hope and confidence: PM Modi in Lok Sabha

PM Modi says, "...Several historic decisions and solutions to issues pending for several decades were made in this House. The House will always say proudly that (abrogation of) Article 370 became possible due to it. GST was also passed here. One Rank One Pension was witnessed by this House. 10% reservation for the Economically Weaker Section was successfully allowed in the country for the first time without any dispute"

Earlier today, Rajya Sabha Chairman & Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar said, "It gives me immense pleasure to congratulate the entire nation on the successful conduct of G20 New Delhi Summit that has filled the heart of every Indian with pride and raised the leadership of the country at the global level...The outcomes of the G20 Leaders' Summit are transformational and would contribute to the reshaping of the global world order in the decades ahead...G20 Leaders' Declaration was adopted unanimously and with consensus, including on difficult issues...It is a recognition that India is a voice of peace and moderation in a world ridden with divisions."

In this House itself, Atal ji had said, "Sarkarein aayegi-jaayegi, partiyan banegi-bigdegi, lekin ye desh rehna chahiye. This echoes even to this day..."

Prime Minister Narendra Modi says, "...The echoes of Pandit Nehru's "At the stroke of the midnight..." in this House will keep inspiring us. In this House itself, Atal ji had said, "Sarkarein aayegi-jaayegi, partiyan banegi-bigdegi, lekin ye desh rehna chahiye. This echoes even to this day..."

I request all MPs to share their memories of this Parliament: PM Modi as he concludes his remarks on 75 years of Parliament legacy.

This Parliament saw a party with just four MPs sitting in power, while the party with more than 100 MPs sat in opposition: PM Modi.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi says "Many MPs attended the session despite health issues. During the COVID-19 crisis, our MPs attended the proceedings of both of the Houses and performed their duties...With the feeling that India's growth journey should not be impacted, all the members considered this House as an important part of their duty...After independence, many critics thought about whether India would remain united or not but we proved all of them wrong... People's trust in the Parliament remain intact."

"As we leave this Parliament building, I want to remember those journalist friends who spent their lives reporting on the Parliament. They conveyed the information from here to the country, even when there was no technology available," says PM Modi in Lok Sabha.

This House also witnessed 'cash for votes' scam during the tenure of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh: PM Modi in Lok Sabha.
