PM Modi will reply on no-confidence motion in Lok Sabha today
In an announcement on Wednesday, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh unveiled that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will grace the Parliament with his presence on August 10th. During this session, PM Modi will address the no-confidence motion brought forth by the opposition against the NDA government. Notably, the opposition had presented a no-confidence motion concerning the Manipur violence issue on July 26th.

While addressing the Parliament yesterday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi raised a pertinent question, questioning why the Prime Minister had not visited Manipur yet. Amidst strong opposition, he stated, “The Prime Minister hasn’t visited Manipur because they (BJP) don’t consider it a part of India. You have divided Manipur.” This marks the second instance where Prime Minister Narendra Modi is facing a no-confidence motion. The first instance was in 2018, when a similar proposal was introduced against the Modi government’s decision to grant special category status to Andhra Pradesh, which was ultimately defeated.
As the monsoon session of Parliament continues, it witnesses intensified political turmoil. The past two days have seen heated debates within the Parliament, with the opposition accusing the government of causing significant divisions in Manipur. Meanwhile, the government has primarily focused on defending its welfare initiatives.
The nation keenly awaits Prime Minister Modi’s response to the no-confidence motion, as it has the potential to set the tone for the upcoming political discourse and governance trajectory. As the session unfolds, both supporters and critics of the government remain vigilant, eager to witness the outcome of this pivotal moment in Indian politics.
