Budget Session of Parliament LIVE UPDATES:  Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday (February 8) spoke in Lok Sabha replying to a debate on President Droupadi Murmu's speech at the start of the Budget session. PM Modi used the occasion to hit back at the Congress and its leader Rahul Gandhi, who a day earlier, had targeted him over the ongoing controversy surrounding the Adani Group. PM Modi, without naming Rahul Gandhi, said,"Yesterday, after some people's remarks in Lok Sabha, I was watching. The entire 'ecosystem' was excited. Supporters were jubilant. Some people were very happy, saying, yeh hui na baat". PM Modi also launched a blistering attack at the Congress calling the 2004-2014
decade (when Congress-led UPA ruled) as a 'lost decade'. "The decade from 2004-2014 will be known as 'lost decade', 2030 decade will be known as India's decade," PM Modi said. "Tumhare paanv ke neeche koi zameen nahi, kamaal ye hai ki fir bhi tumhe yakeen nahi," PM Modi quoted famous Hindi poet Dushyant Kumar to target Congress.
