Prime Minister Narendra Modi hit out at the Opposition and hailed his government's achievements in Lok Sabha during his reply to a debate on Motion of Thanks to the President's Address. In his speech during the ongoing Budget session of the parliament, PM Narendra Modi highlighted decisions on Article 370, triple talaq and Ram Janmabhoomi as achievements of his government. He said if his government had worked in the same manner as previous one, these matters would still be a problem. 

Talking about the anti-CAA protests, Prime Minister Narendra Modi also accused the Congress and the Left of inciting people at protest sites while making it clear that the Citizenship Act will neither impact any Indian citizen nor harm minority interests. 

"I want to clearly state that with the CAA coming, there will be no impact on any citizen of India, practising any faith. CAA does not affect any Indian, it doesn't harm minority interests," he said in his more than 90-minute long reply.

Slamming former Jammu and Kashmir chief ministers Mehbooba Mufti and Omar Abdullah for their remarks on abrogation of Article 370, Modi said Kashmir's identity was buried on January 19, 1990, when Kashmiri Pandits started leaving the Valley due to militancy.
