'Thak gaye, chale gaye': PM Modi’s dig as Opposition walks out of Rajya Sabha

Prime Minister Narendra Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said that the opposition got tired of raising slogans and walked out.

PM Modi was speaking in the Rajya Sabha, replying to the motion of thanks to the president's address. Targeting the Congress party, Prime Minister Modi said that those who are tired or have left will one day have to answer for why they created the present condition of the country.

As the Prime Minister began his address, several opposition leaders began raising slogans, saying “LoP ko bolne do" and “tanashahi nahi chalegi“. In a jibe at Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, PM Modi urged him to sit and raise slogans, considering his age.

“Considering the age of Kharge ji, I urge you, the Chairman, to let him sit and raise slogans, so that he faces no discomfort. There are young people at the back. So, please permit Kharge ji to sloganeer even while sitting," PM Modi said in a light-hearted jibe, drawing smiles from BJP MPs.
