PM Modi applauds RS Dy Chairman Harivansh for his gesture towards suspended MPs | Master Stroke

On the first day of this session when he won the Deputy Chairman election, Modi recounted an anecdote that not only reaffirms how grounded he is but also the respect he commands. "The respect I hold for Harivansh ji, each member of the House shares. He has earned this respect. His unbiased role in Parliament strengthens this democracy," Modi had said.

Modi recounted how Singh had no shoes for a large part of his life and when he ordered one to be made by a village shoemaker, he would visit him regularly to see the progress just like a "rich person visits to see the progress of his bungalow". Modi said it shows how grounded he has been all through his life.
