Modi, Amit Shah to Fast on 12 April to Protest Parliament Logjam

All BJP MPs will also observe the fast, along with PM Modi and Amit Shah, to protest the disruption of Parliament.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief Amit Shah will observe a day-long fast on Thursday, 12 April, over disruptions during the Budget Session of Parliament, reported ANI.

All BJP MPs will also observe the fast.

BJP spokesperson GVL Narsimha Rao told News18 that the fast was proposed by PM Modi and that this was the BJP’s way of communicating to the nation that the party was aware of the injustice done to the people due to disruption of Parliament.

This year’s Budget Session has reportedly been the worst in terms of productivity in the last eight years, with both the BJP and the Congress playing the blame game.
