Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday, August 3, 2021, slammed opposition members for tearing papers in Parliament and making “derogatory” remarks on the way Bills have been passed as he accused them of insulting the legislature and the Constitution with their conduct.

Briefing reporters on Mr. Modi’s speech at the BJP parliamentary party meeting, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi said the Prime Minister expressed anger at the conduct of some opposition members.

While a TMC Member in Rajya Sabha had torn the statement of IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on the Pegasus issue, several opposition members had torn papers in Lok Sabha and threw it in the air and towards the Chair.

A tweet of TMC leader Derek O’Brien criticising the manner of Bills’ passage in Parliament also drew Mr. Modi’s ire, Mr. Joshi and another Union Minister V. Muraleedharan told reporters, without naming the TMC member.
