Prime Minister <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/article/no-confidence-debate-rahul-gandhi-fires-salvo-accuses-pm-modi-of-murdering-india-in-manipur-uproar-in-lok-sabha-23302656" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Narendra Modi</a> is set to address the Lok Sabha on Thursday in response to the Opposition's no-confidence motion against the NDA government.
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh confirming the PM's presence at the Parliament on Wednesday, said, "The PM will be present in the House on Thursday to reply to the no-confidence motion."
Meanwhile, Union Home Minister Amit Shah also confirmed that the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/article/today-india-is-asking-corruption-dynasty-appeasement-to-quit-india-pm-modis-swipe-at-opposition-23302644" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Prime Minister</a> will be present in the House on Thursday to reply to the no-confidence motion.
The opposition moved a no-confidence motion against the Modi government on July 26 which was accepted by Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.
However, the Modi-government won't lose the vote as his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies have a majority in the Lok Sabha.
Any Lok Sabha MP, who has the support of 50 colleagues, can, at any point of time, introduce a motion of no-confidence against the Council of Ministers.
Thereafter, a discussion on the motion takes place. MPs who support the motion highlight the government&acirc;&iquest;&iquest;s shortcomings, and the Treasury Benches respond to the issues they raise. Ultimately, voting takes place and if the motion is successful, the government is forced to vacate the office.
Notably, the NDA has a commendable majority with a number of 331 MPs out of which the BJP has 303 MPs while the combined strength of the Opposition bloc I.N.D.I.A is 144. The numbers of unaligned parties&acirc;&iquest;&iquest; MPs are 70 in the Lower House.
This is the second time Prime Minister Narendra Modi is facing a no-confidence motion.
Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi on Tuesday initiated the debate on the motion which later turned into a heated argument between the Opposition and the Centre.
