The Opposition has disrespected the public by boycotting his Parliament speech.
The BJP on Friday accused the Opposition of trying to set “wrong traditions” by boycotting President Ram Nath Kovind’s address to both Houses of Parliament at the commencement of the Budget Session. It said the Congress’s condemnation of the violence at the Red Fort on Republic Day was mere “tokenism.”
Speaking outside Parliament, Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said, “today’s budget session commenced with the President’s address, but it is really unfortunate that the entire Opposition boycotted it.”
“The President of India is above political differences, he is the constitutional head. Respecting him in his address is healthy practice of democracy. It is unfortunate that the Opposition, especially the Congress who governed the country for 50 years, boycotted it. What tradition are they establishing?” he stated.
