The inability of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to deliver his speech during the motion of thanks to the President's address in the Lok Sabha has sparked a major political debate. BJP MP Manoj Tiwari and Kangana Ranaut have made serious allegations against the opposition, criticizing them sharply.
Kangana Ranaut, the Lok Sabha MP from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, alleged that on Tuesday, when PM Modi was to respond to the President's address, Congress MPs completely blocked his way in the Lok Sabha.
She accused opposition MPs of trying to attack the Speaker as well, and claimed they intended to directly assault the Prime Minister. Kangana stated, "Opposition female MPs gathered at the spot where the Prime Minister sits. In such an environment, it was a wise decision for the Prime Minister not to give his address."

Meanwhile, Manoj Tiwari, the MP from Delhi, said, 'They (opposition) had completely encircled the area, hence the Prime Minister did not come. Nearly 7-8 female opposition MPs came forward and completely blocked where the Prime Minister sits and the path he takes. This must have made the Prime Minister halt.'
The House Proceedings Were Adjourned
According to sources, Congress MPs were upset because opposition leader Rahul Gandhi wasn’t given a chance to speak. Female Congress MPs surrounded the Prime Minister’s chair, leading Speaker Om Birla to adjourn the house's proceedings. Despite the Prime Minister being present in Parliament and ready to respond, it was a rare instance in history where he couldn't deliver his speech during such an important procedure.
