As Lok Sabha proceedings chaired by Speaker Om Birla began in the new building, Modi delivered his maiden speech in the new Lok Sabha chamber as the Leader of the House.

The prime minister also remembered ‘shramjeevis’ (labourers) who were part of the construction of the new Parliament building. Parliament, he said, is a supreme place to serve the nation.
Parliament is not a place to work for the growth of the party but for the development of the nation, he stressed.
