Congress leader Sonia Gandhi said President Droupadi Murmu was “getting tired by the end” of her speech in Parliament on the first day of the Budget Session 2025. “She [Murmu] could hardly speak, poor thing,” Sonia Gandhi said on Friday.
Droupadi Murmu addressed the joint session of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha on Friday, kicking off the 2025 Budget session of Parliament.
Besides, Sonia Gandhi, Independent MP and Congress supporter Pappu Yadav also criticized Murmu over her speech. Yadav made an objectionable statement by calling her a “stamp” and stating that she just read a “love letter”.
“The President is like a stamp. She just has to read a love letter…” Pappu Yadav was quoted by news agency ANI as saying.
