Last Updated 02 September 2021, 01:50 IST

Expressing his anguish over the uproar in Parliament during the recently concluded Monsoon session, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla said that members of the Houses must maintain dignity while sharing their views. "The members of Parliament have the privilege to express their views. I always try that they get extra time in the Parliament to share their opinions," he said. "India's democracy is one of free expressions, a democracy of elected institutions of the people. Agreements and disagreements are part of the democracy but I expect the members to maintain certain decency in the Parliament." He added that the Houses should work ethically and the conduct should be such that we can play the guiding role for other democratic institutions.
