Don’t do or say anything that could damage India’s image: Venkaiah Naidu to Rajya Sabha members
The Hindu
Rajya Sabha Chairman M. Venkaiah Naidu on Saturday urged members of the House not to do or say anything that could damage India’s image and might be used by the country’s enemies against it.
Speaking at the inauguration of a two-day orientation programme for new members of the Upper House, Mr. Naidu stressed that “discuss, debate and decide” is the mantra of democracy and that members should not resort to disruption.
