Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday (August 10) replied to the No Confidence Motion debate brought in by the Opposition in Lok Sabha. The debate which began on August 8 will culminate today with the Prime Minister’s reply to the debate. Numerous leaders took part in the debate including Amit Shah, Rahul Gandhi, Smriti Irani, Nirmala Sitharaman, Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, Kiren Rijiju, Nishikant Dubey, Gaurav Gogoi, Jyotiraditya Scindia and others.
The Opposition has been demanding the Prime Minister’s presence and his statement in the House over the sporadic Manipur violence which has continued for over three months now.
Here are the highlights of PM Modi’s speech in the House:
- God is very kind and speaks through some medium…I believe that it’s the blessing of God that opposition has brought this motion. I had said during the no-confidence motion in 2018 that it was not a floor test for us but a floor test for them and as a result they lost in the elections.
- The trust of the people of the country shown in our government again and again – I am here to show my gratitude to the crores of the people of the country.
- Opposition brought No-Confidence Motion in 2018 also, I had said it was their floor test, not of the government, and was proven right
- Today, I can see that you (Opposition) have decided that NDA and BJP will come back with a grand victory, breaking all previous records, with the blessings of the people.
- The trust of the people of the country is shown in our government again and again – I am here to show my gratitude to the crores of the people of the country.
- BJP and NDA will win a record number of seats in 2024 polls.
- What kind of discussion have you done on this motion. I am seeing on social media ki ‘Aapke darbari bhi bahut dukhi hai’. Fielding Vipaksh ne organise kari lekin chauke-chakke yahi se large. Centuries being scored here (treasury benches) and no-balls being bowled from there (opposition benches).
- For Opposition, the party is above the country; they have more interest in the hunger for power than the hunger of people.
- During this no-confidence motion, we saw something bizarre. The name of the Leader of the Opposition was missing from the list of those who would speak during the no-trust motion. Tallest leader in Oppn ranks not in list of speakers; Amit Shah’s magnanimity that he promised time to Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury. I don’t know what was compulsion of Congress for sidelining Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, maybe call was made from Kolkata.
- Our focus should be the development of the country…It is the need of the hour. Our youth have the power to make dreams come true…We’ve given corruption-free govt, aspirations and opportunities to the youth of the country.
- According to Niti Aayog report, 13.5 crore people have overcome poverty in the last five years in India. IMF writes in its working paper that India has nearly ended extreme poverty.
- In 2014, a full majority govt came after three decades and we got a bigger mandate in 2019 because of our track record.
- Opposition’s favourite slogan is ‘Modi teri kabr khudegi’. The opposition has used as many abuses as it could. But it’s good for them, doing so would have made them feel better.
-
They ruined HAL (Hindustan Aeronautics Limited). They tried to incite the workers and spread negativity. But now HAL is flourishing. It has recorded its highest ever revenue. HAL has now become the pride of country. Opposition has ‘secret power’, anyone for whom it wishes ill is blessed instead.
-
When we say that we will make our economy the third largest economy in the next 5 years, a responsible opposition would have asked questions as to how will we do it but ‘Yeh bhi mujhe hi sikhana pada raha hai’. If Congress says that everything will happen on its own, it means Congress has neither policy nor intention or vision or understanding of global economic system or India’s economic world’s strength.
-
It is the country’s belief that in 2028 when you bring in the No-Confidence Motion, India will be within the top three economies of the world.
-
They (Opposition) said many things about LIC that the money of the poor will sink but today LIC is getting stronger. ‘Share market vale logo ke liye yeh mantra hai ki jis bhi sarkari company ko yeh gaali de usme daanv laga do acha hi hone vala hai. All the organisations of the country that are declared dead by these people, those organisations get lucky. The manner in which they curse the country and democracy, I am confident that the country and democracy are going to get stronger. We too are going to be stronger.
-
I want to tell that the sense of No-Confidence of the people of India towards Congress is very deep. Congress party and friends have a history that they never trusted India and its abilities. There was a time when Pakistan used to attack our borders and indulge in terror activities inside the country and would then deny involvement. They trusted Pakistan.
-
Congress is so blinded by arrogance that it cannot see ground reality, people have deep no-confidence in it.
-
People of Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, UP, Gujarat, Bihar, Tripura, and Odisha have been declaring no-confidence in Congress for years.
-
I express sympathies with my opposition friends; they performed last rites of UPA in Bengaluru. The UPA thinks that by using the name of the country, its believability can be increased. But the Congress ally, a Tamil Nadu Minister said two days ago India does not mean anything to him. According to him, Tamil Nadu is not a part of India.
-
People of the country have no confidence in Congress. Due to arrogance, they are not able to see the reality. In Tamil Nadu, they won in 1962 and since 1962 the people of Tamil Nadu are saying ‘No Congress’. In West Bengal they won in 1972, people of West Bengal are also saying ‘No Congress’. In UP, Bihar, and Gujarat they won in 1985 and the people of these states are also saying ‘No Congress.
-
It is not INDIA alliance, but ‘Ghamandia’ alliance. In this alliance, everybody wants to be prime minister.
-
You’re trying to pass off old vehicle as electric one just by applying new paint. Nothing is Congress’ own, from its poll symbol to ideas, everything has been borrowed from someone else.
-
Their (Opposition’s) trouble is such that they had to take the support of NDA to keep themselves alive. But, out of habit, the arrogance of ‘I’ doesn’t leave them alone. That is why, they inserted two ‘I’s of arrogance in NDA. First ‘I’ – the arrogance of 26 parties and the second ‘I’ – the arrogance of one family. They stole NDA too. They also broke India – I.N.D.I.A.
