New Delhi, Feb 23 (IANS) Reaching out to the Opposition, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Monday said the government would try and ensure that all important issues are discussed in the budget session of parliament.
"I had a meeting with the leaders of allies yesterday (Sunday) and listened to their views. We will try that every important issue in the budget session is discussed," Modi told reporters outside parliament house shortly before the commencement of the budget session.
The prime minister said that the budget session is an important opportunity for every government as well as for the country.
"This session is an important occasion for the government and the country as the expectations and aspirations of the common man are reflected in the budget. I am sure the session will be held in a spirit of cooperation and cordiality," he said.
