New Delhi, Sep 18 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Congress on Monday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying his tenure has been marked by minimum non-customary interventions in Parliament with the worst attendance record of all Prime Ministers.
Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh in a post on X (formerly Twitter) said: "From tomorrow afternoon, Parliament will convene in the new building. Hopefully, now at least the Prime Minister will sit more frequently in both Houses.
"His tenure has been marked by minimum non-customary interventions in Parliament with the worst attendance record of all Prime Ministers."
