Modi tells NDA MPs they are part of one family

The Story in Brief

Prime Minister Narendra Modi met around 45 newly elected and first-time NDA Lok Sabha MPs over breakfast at his residence on Friday, according to ANI reports carried by The Economic Times. NCPI leader Jagdish Basunia said Modi described the alliance as a “family” and urged MPs to work together for public welfare.

The meeting also covered development in the North-East, NCPI MP Sudip Bandyopadhyay said. Shatabdi Roy described the discussion as collaborative. MPs who recently joined the NDA from parties including the TMC, NCPI, UBT and Shiv Sena were expected to attend, BJP sources told ANI. Modi had earlier met newly elected BJP Rajya Sabha MPs and advised them on public conduct, social media use and parliamentary behaviour.

The Indian Opinion

The easy story is that a breakfast meeting proves complete unity, while the opposing version may treat it as mere political optics. Neither conclusion follows from the account. The reported message was about coordination, public welfare and disciplined conduct, not a policy agreement or seat-sharing arrangement. The practical test is whether these MPs act together on North-East development and other public issues when Parliament votes, speaks and scrutinises the government.
