Pic\/News18<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span class=\"cf0\">In his second meeting after being sworn in as the Rajya Sabha Chairman, Vice President of India <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/india\/who-is-cp-radhakrishnan-maharashtra-governor-and-ndas-pick-becomes-indias-new-vice-president-9558762.html\">CP Radhakrishnan<\/a> met with floor leaders of various political parties in Parliament on Tuesday. He thanked all the leaders for attending the meeting and emphasised the need for collective efforts to ensure the smooth functioning of the house. He conveyed that a \u201cLakshman Rekha&#8221; must be drawn to ensure ample space for debate and discussion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span class=\"cf0\">The Rajya Sabha Chairman assured that all voices and opinions in a democracy matter and would be considered. He encouraged members to participate in important matters, especially those of public concern, through zero hours and special mentions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span class=\"cf0\">Opposition parties raised concerns about not having adequate opportunities to express their reservations. They requested the Vice President to consider their suggestions and provide ample time for them to voice their opinions. They highlighted that during the last session, their notices were rejected by the chair, leaving them feeling unrepresented. Smaller parties also expressed concern about the limited time they were given to speak on issues, despite representing the people. The opposition pointed out that bills were being passed hastily without proper discussion, despite their strong objections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span class=\"cf0\">On behalf of the government, Rajya Sabha Leader of the House JP Nadda assured that the government was not avoiding any discussion or debate and that everyone\u2019s concerns were being considered. Nadda elaborated that Parliament functions based on certain rules that apply to everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span class=\"cf0\">Government representatives, including Parliamentary Affairs Minister Arjun Ram <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Meghwal<\/span><span class=\"cf0\"> and L <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Murugan<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">, attended the meeting. BJP President JP Nadda was present, along with Congress representatives Jairam Ramesh and Pramod Tiwari, TMC\u2019s Sagarika Ghosh, DMK\u2019s <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Tiruchi<\/span><span class=\"cf0\"> Siva, Shiv Sena\u2019s Milind <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Deora<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">, actor-politician Kamal <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Haasan<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">, Sanjay Singh from the Aam Aadmi Party, A Rama Reddy from YSRCP, Sana Satish from TDP, GK <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Vasan<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">, John <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Brittas<\/span><span class=\"cf0\"> from CPM, Fouzia Khan from NCP-SP, and <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Sasmit<\/span><span class=\"cf0\"> Patra from BJD.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span class=\"cf0\">In a lighthearted manner, while addressing the opposition leaders, the Vice President mentioned that he was making his maiden speech and hoped it would not be disrupted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span class=\"cf0\">Opposition parties raised the issue that during question hour, ministers\u2019 responses tend to be political rather than addressing the subject at hand. They requested the Chairman to ensure more precise and relevant responses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><span class=\"cf0\">Several members also voiced concerns about private members\u2019 bills being scheduled on Fridays, which often get adjourned early in the morning before the weekend. They suggested that private members\u2019 bills could be taken up on any day and should be encouraged, as they bring many good suggestions that could benefit the government.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-c9f81425ec968c48 jsx-132245329 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>October 07, 2025, 20:32 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c9f81425ec968c48 jsx-132245329 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/politics\/\">politics<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> &#8216;Lakshman Rekha&#8217; Must Be Drawn, Vice President Radhakrishnan\u00a0Tells Rajya Sabha Floor Leaders<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
