Prime Minister Narendra Modi met 36 to 45 Rajya Sabha MPs from the NDA at a breakfast meeting, according to differing accounts from Hindustan Times and Times of India. He advised them to avoid lobbyists and the 'web of Lutyens' Delhi', maintain dignity on TV, and not carry anxiety from the House outside. The meeting included MPs who recently joined the BJP after leaving the Trinamool Congress and Aam Aadmi Party. Modi also encouraged using Parliament's library, learning from seniors, and being cautious with technology. A SWOT analysis of attendees' social media accounts was arranged. The report relies mainly on unnamed lawmakers.
