Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad hit the headlines, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi bid a teary-eyed, emotional farewell to the retiring leader on the floor of Parliament.
Azad’s term in the Upper House of Parliament ends on February 15. Since Jammu & Kashmir Assembly has been dissolved, there is no immediate prospect of Azad returning to the Rajya Sabha, unless the Congress fields from some other State.
Perhaps it was a rare sight that two ideologically opposite poles could be speaking on such emotional terms. As Leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha for six years, from 2014 onwards, Azad had raised the bar of parliamentary discourse and engagement.
