PM Modi Addresses Rajya Sabha Amid Opposition Protests and WalkoutPreviousNext

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the Rajya Sabha to reply to the Motion of Thanks on the President's address amid loud protests and sloganeering by opposition MPs. During the disruptions, Modi took a light-hearted dig at Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, suggesting he could raise slogans while seated due to his age. The opposition protested the limited speaking opportunities for Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and staged a walkout. Modi highlighted India's development progress despite the interruptions.
