Two weeks ago, on December 7, 2021, Prime Minister Narendra Damodardas Modi told Bharatiya Janata Party MPs that they needed to attend Parliament, warning them if they don't transform themselves, there could be changes with time.
Modi said party MPs should regularly attend Parliament and pointedly remarked that when children are pointed out an issue again and again, even they don't repeat it.
On Monday, December 20, Congress MPs produced a telling placard in the Lok Sabha revealing how many days Modi has attended Parliament's winter session.
