WATCH: PM Modi Praises Ex-PM Manmohan Singh In Rajya Sabha
NEW DELHI: During a farewell speech for retiring members of the Rajya Sabha, Prime Minister Narendra Modi commended the dedication of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
He fondly recalled an instance where Dr. Singh, despite using a wheelchair, made a point of coming to the House to cast his vote, even when the outcome was foreseeable.
In recognition of their service, a farewell function for retiring Rajya Sabha members will be held on Thursday evening at Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar’s residence in Delhi.
Earlier today, the members commemorated their time in the Upper House with a group photo taken at 10 am at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.
