Modi cautions MPs, Ministers against missing Parliament |
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday cautioned Union ministers against skipping their roster duties in Parliament and said that he should be given names of all absentee ministers the same evening. Modi`s displeasure over the issue of absence of ministers came at the Bharatiya Janata Party`s parliamentary party meeting, where he has in the past often pulled up MPs for absenteeism when it is in session. This is the second time in the month, Modi has expressed unhappiness over the issue of absence of lawmakers in Parliament. Opposition members have at times raised the issue of absence of ministers. There have been instances when Cabinet ministers or their deputies scheduled to be present in either Lok Sabha or Rajya Sabha, were absent. Asking ministers to stick to their roster duties, Modi said they should carry out their work as assigned.
