The President made her remarks while addressing a joint session of Parliament, which marked the start of the Budget Session.

The successful hosting of the G20 Summit by India reinforced the country’s global standing. Additionally, India secured over 100 medals in the Asian Games.”

    This was the first President Murmu’s inaugural address in the new Parliament building.”This is my first address in the new Parliament building. This grand building has been built at the beginning of the Amrit Kaal. This has the fragrance of ‘Ek Bharat, Shreshth Bharat’…This also has the resolve to honour democratic and parliamentary traditions. Besides this, it also has the resolve to build new traditions of the new India of the 21st century,” said President Murmu during her speech.
