New Delhi: Massive sloganeering was witnessed in Lok Sabha today by the Opposition parties as Prime Minister Narendra Modi was replying to the no-confidence motion moved against his government by the Opposition INDIA bloc. The Opposition chanted slogans demanding the PM to speak on the issue of Manipur on the floor of the House. The Lower House of the Parliament echoed with slogans of "we want Manipur" as Modi spoke to the no-confidence motion.  

The objective of the Congress and the Opposition INDIA alliance to move the no-trust motion was to get Modi to address the House. 

Modi launched a sharp attack on the I.N.D.I.A coalition, saying that the no-confidence motion was a floor test of the Opposition and that BJP would again secure a majority in the 2024 Lok Sabha election.

"In a way, Opposition's no-confidence has always been lucky for us. Today, I can see that you (Opposition) have decided that NDA and BJP will come back in 2024 elections with a grand victory, breaking all previous records, with the blessings of the people," the PM said.

Targeting Modi as he spoke, the Trinamool Congress asked why he did not speak on the strife-torn Manipur. "50 minutes have passed ⏳ Not a word on #Manipur! Why PM @narendramodi?" tweeted the party's official handle.
