What’s on agenda
In such meetings, PM Modi usually talks about the government’s priorities in Parliament and broader political matters. He also gives MPs key points to share with the public, especially in their constituencies. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to speak to the MPs during the meeting. He is likely to discuss several political and governance-related issues, according to a report by PTI.
A major highlight of the meeting is the felicitation of PM Modi following the landmark trade agreement confirmed with the US (under the Trump administration). This is being framed as a massive boost for the Indian economy.
The meeting serves to prepare a counter-strategy against the Opposition (INDIA bloc), specifically regarding the heated debates in Lok Sabha over the Motion of Thanks on the President’s Address and recent controversies involving former Army Chief General M.M. Naravane’s unpublished memoirs.
