Mr Rijiju said, but many new MPs were not allowed to speak in Parliament and the opposition itself is responsible for this. He criticized the opposition saying they disrupted the House a lot and did not participate in the scheduled time for discussion. The Minister expressed displeasure that the opposition did not allow Members to congratulate Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla, the first Indian to visit the International Space Station.
