Meanwhile, earlier today in his media address before the start of the Winter Session of Parliament, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, "Today the world is looking at India with great hope. Our use of Parliament's time and our behaviour in the House should be such that it strengthens the respect that India has gained at the global level."
