NEW DELHI: Opposition parties on Tuesday criticised the Presidents address declaring that the speech resembled the first chapter of BJPs manifesto for 2024 and essential issues associated with managing costs, communal consistency and women were missing out on .
In her first address to the joint sitting of Parliament on Tuesday, Droupadi Murmu stated the nation had a government that was stable, fearless, decisive , working for all classes without any discrimination and providing thrust to virasat (heritage) in addition to vikas (development).
Murmu spoke of the governments relentless battle against corruption, the most significant opponent of democracy and social justice .
Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge said it was the governments statement that has come through the President and there was absolutely nothing new in it.
If the federal government is declaring that the country has advanced a lot, why do the bad of the country continue to suffer due to unemployment and high inflation? he stated and alleged that schemes renamed by Modi government were not reaching the poor .
As is convention, Presidents address to both Houses of #Parliament is written by GoI.
Any line in speech about controlling rates, developing tasks, enhancing (fiscal) federalism, promoting common harmony, passing Womens Reservation Bill? Oh and 2 parsimonious lines about the north-east, TMC Rajya Sabha MP Derek OBrien composed on Twitter.CPIs Binoy Viswam alleged empowerment of women, youths, Dalits and tribals was only on paper.
The historic Central Hall experienced the Presidents address, possibly for the last time.
Everything related to the flexibility battle and Constitution are being dumped.
The address appears to be the first chapter of the ruling party manifesto for 2024.
Words are charming; facts are not! he tweeted.
