#NamoInSansad was at his oratorical best today. He is one of those rare politicians who can mock and respect at the same time. He can deride anyone with unparalleled ease and then the next moment he can quote numbers to turn the discussion into a more serious one.

Modi’s oratory today in the Parliament was such that he won appreciate glances from the most hostile opposition camp in India’s history:

Here are his top quotes.

#NamoInSansad: On Parliamentarian Ethics

If the House maintains decorum, we will be able to put our point of view in a better manner

When house doesn’t run, it is the Opposition that loses the most as they can’t raise problems faced by people

We indulge in tu tu main main (fighting) due to fear of what will be printed in the newspapers.

All of us have to work together and think of increasing the accountability of the executive

Questions are asked here and government has to defend and give their logic.

During discussion, no one is spared, and one shouldn’t expect otherwise.

As far as disruptions are concerned, our former Speaker and some members here whose guide and philosopher Somnath Chatterjee, said to disrupt is totally counterproductive.

#NamoInSansad: Tips to make the Parliament more inclusive and accountable

Only women lawmakers should speak on 8th March to mark International Women’s Day.

Choose a week to allow first-time lawmakers to speak in Parliament.

Can all members sit an extra day on Saturday during a session and debate on India’s role?

#NamoInSansad: On Congress’s Hypocrisy

You take every debate back to Gujarat because of your bankruptcy of ideas

GST Bill is yours, why are you opposing it

We are mocking things like Make in India? This is for the nation. If there are shortcomings it may be shared and discussed

Wouldn’t need schemes like MNREGA if past governments had succeeded in removing poverty’

Congress has sown seeds of poverty so deep.

No one will deny that if Congress would’ve helped the poor in 60 years, the poor wouldn’t still be facing trouble.

Kharge ji said there is corruption in MNREGA and I agree with him. Look at the CAG report of 2012 & what observations were made

There should be no jealousy factor because we are performing better than they (Congress) did in 60 years.

10 years of UPA in Railways, the average annual expense for Rail development was Rs 9291 crore. But in 2 years we have spent Rs 32,587 crore

This is a live example of how with the same resources, employees, law and order the government is performing better

I request intellectuals to compare Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana launched by Vajpayeeji and MGNREGA, see the difference

#NamoInSansad: About Collective Responsibility

In 1974, in IP College, Indira Gandhi ji said that we should not portray our nation as weak

We will have to focus on primary education. Similarly water conservation is a social responsibility.

#NamoInSansad: About Himself

I have been getting Praman Patras from last 14 years, I accept one more gladly

I am new, you are experienced, come, let us work together for the country.

#NamoInSansad: About Rahul Gandhi

Some people learn with age but some don’t
