PM Modi's Taunt on the Opposition
In his address, PM Modi took a jibe at the opposition, saying that some people will have problems with these names as well. He said that if the name Kosi is used, they will see the Bihar elections instead of the Kosi River. He called this kind of thinking a sign of a "small mind" and said that the names of rivers are part of a tradition that connects the country.
Congratulations to MPs and Appreciation for Workers
The Prime Minister congratulated all the MPs on their new accommodations. He also appreciated the hard work of the engineers and workers involved in the construction. PM Modi said that this project would not have been possible without their hard work and dedication.
Relief from the Dilapidated Condition of Old Residences

He said that after moving into the new residences, MPs will be free from these problems and will be able to devote their energy to solving the problems of the public.
Development Vision of 21st Century India
The Prime Minister said that 21st century India is as eager for development as it is sensitive. Referring to the inauguration of Kartavya Path and Kartavya Bhawan, he said that the country not only builds big projects but also does things like delivering water through pipes to crores of homes.
From Parliament Building to Medical Colleges
PM Modi said that today the country is building a new Parliament building, and at the same time, it is also preparing hundreds of new medical colleges. Every class and every society is getting the benefit of these facilities. He said that maintaining the sustainability and cleanliness of the MP residence complex is everyone's responsibility.
