The Indian Parliament holds a sacred place in the heart of our democracy, and both governing and opposition parties share the collective responsibility of safeguarding its dignity. The recent breach has cast a shadow on the sanctity of our parliamentary proceedings, and it is our duty to come together to ensure the protection and preservation of the democratic values we hold,” he pointed out.
