Patna : The no confidence motion moved by TDP against the BJP led NDA government, the first in four years, was defeated by 325 -126 votes in the Lok Sabha on July 20, 2018, after almost a 12 hour debate. The debate was marked by brilliant oratory by PM Narendra Modi and Congress President Rahul Gandhi hugging Modi after concluding his speech. The NDA won by a bigger margin than what was expected.

PM Modi mocked Rahul Gandhi for his gesture to make him stand before huggim him saying it showed Congress President’s arrogance and hurry to get the PM’s chair. Modi, however, patted Rahul on the back.

The PM while asking all Lok Sabha Members to reject the no confidence motion said that it was Congress’ attempt to test its own probable allies. Arrogance is behind the no confidence motion, Modi said.

Rahul Gandhi’s speech was on predicatble lines though he made a scathing attack on the Prime Minister alleging corruption in Rafale Jet deal. But, PM Modi rejected all his bouncers easily.
