Hailing Dhankhar as a leader who has both the elements of 'jawan' (soldier) and 'kisan' (farmer) imbibed in him, the prime minister said the House was fortunate to receive “his able and effective leadership at this juncture in history.”

“Today you are formally commencing charge as chairman of this house.

The session will go on up to December 29. There will be total 17 sittings of both the houses where several issues of importance will be discussed.
