Opposition bereft of ideas: BJP's Choudhry in Rajya Sabha

New Delhi, Feb 3 (PTI) Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) leader Kiran Choudhry on Monday launched a scathing attack on Opposition parties, saying they are bereft of ideas and trying to build a false narrative against the Modi government, as the Rajya Sabha started a discussion on 'Motion of Thanks On The President's Address'.

Moving the motion in the Upper House, Choudhry said the Prime Minister has addressed all the important issues, which had been lying dormant for a long time because of policy paralysis and the indifferent attitude of the erstwhile Congress government.

"And it is heartening to know that Modi has put Bharat on the centre stage of the world community," said the BJP MP from Haryana.

President Droupadi Murmu on Friday, the first day of the Budget Session, addressed both the Houses of Parliament assembled together in the Lok Sabha chamber and said the pace of work has tripled in the third term of her government, which has worked with strong determination to lift the economy out of the state of "policy paralysis".

Launching a scathing attack on the Opposition, Choudhry said they are running a false narrative and trying to paint a wrong picture of the Narendra Modi government.

She said the Modi-led government has taken transformative steps to find holistic solutions to address all important issues.

"The opposition parties, who are bereft of all agenda, are trying to paint this government as anti-farmer, patriarchal, misogynist, majoritarian and despotic. This false propaganda is born out of their desperation for their plummeting political fortunes," she said.

Choudhry said the false narrative of Opposition has been rejected by the people and cited the resounding victories of the BJP in recently concluded assembly elections in Haryana and Maharashtra. PTI RKL NKD MJH NKD BAL BAL
