Debates in parliament should be driven by ‘logic, facts’: PM

New Delhi, Jul 20: Prime Minister Narendra Modi Monday addressed the media before the start of the Monsoon Session of 2026 at the Parliament premises.
Welcoming the attendees to the commencement of the new parliamentary session, the Prime Minister drew a thoughtful parallel between natural weather patterns and legislative productivity. Emphasizing the profound impact of proactive and forward-thinking actions on the nation’s overall well-being, the Prime Minister expressed hopes for highly constructive outcomes that ultimately benefit every living being. “We pray that the monsoon remains proactive, and the monsoon session also remains productive,” remarked Modi.
Highlighting a continuous series of extraordinary national and international achievements over the past month, the Prime Minister expressed immense pride in the country’s rising global stature. Recalling how an Indian citizen reached the International Space Station just prior to last year’s session, he celebrated the recent historical milestone by the private space startup Skyroot. Lauding the incredible fact that a team with an average age of merely 28 successfully propelled the nation into a new era of private space exploration, he emphasized how these achievements significantly boost national confidence. “These startups driven by our youth have firmly embedded India’s flag in space, making our country’s profile universal and accepted across the globe,” noted Modi.
Framing these recent technological milestones as deliberate indicators of the nation’s boundless potential, the Prime Minister declared that the current generation’s capabilities are completely unrestrained. He positioned these historical successes as the ultimate source of motivation for the entire country moving forward. “This is a very strong message that the capacity and aspiration of our youth are as limitless as space itself,” asserted Modi.
Tracing the root cause of these unprecedented entrepreneurial triumphs, the Prime Minister credited the government’s rapid and transformative policy changes. He emphasized that this progressive environment directly enables young innovators to take massive risks and achieve groundbreaking victories. “It is the result of the reform express the country has embarked upon today that our youth are able to show such great courage and succeed,” affirmed Modi.
Detailing a rapid succession of massive infrastructural and technological inaugurations, the Prime Minister cited the recent dedication of a major oil refinery in Rajasthan, the country’s third semiconductor plant, and the launch of the world’s longest and most powerful green hydrogen train. He attributed these highly advanced national assets strictly to the unified dedication and relentless hard work of the nation’s brilliant scientists, engineers, and laborers. “This is the direct result of our innovators, entrepreneurs, and workers who are living and working for the country with a singular, unified goal,” observed Modi.
Acknowledging the severe global anxieties stemming from the ongoing conflicts in West Asia, the Prime Minister highlighted how massive disruptions across petrol, diesel, LPG, fertilizer, and chemical supply chains posed a profound threat to the energy-dependent nation. Despite these intense international obstacles, he proudly cited the country’s phenomenal 7.7 percent growth rate as a testament to its resilience and capability. Transitioning to the legislative agenda, he urged all highly experienced parliamentarians to harness this rapid national momentum, pleading for deeply constructive, fact-based debates that prioritize patriotism and ensure every single voice and thought receives respect.
Concluding by echoing the Speaker’s morning social media welcome to the MPs, he called for meaningful discussions devoid of disruptive storms. “Where there are strong facts and logic, there is absolutely no place for disruptions; a powerful voice can be raised even with a calm mind to confidently guide the nation forward,” affirmed Modi.
