Parliament LIVE: Union Minister Jitendra Singh
Union Minister Dr Jitendra Singh says, “You (Opposition) have failed to congratulate the space experts and scientists for our space achievements. Your anger can be with the government. Your anger can be with the BJP and the NDA. But it is surprising that you can be angry with an astronaut. And that astronaut who, apart from being an astronaut, is also a disciplined soldier of the Indian Air Force. He does not belong to any political party… You are angry with the earth, you are angry with the sky and today you seem to be angry with space as well.” #WATCH...
