Overview
- Prime Minister Narendra Modi held an all-NDA dinner at 7 Lok Kalyan Marg on December 11 to reinforce alliance cohesion and review priorities for the ongoing Winter Session.
- Nearly 54 tables seated mixed delegations with a Union Minister at each, while MPs arrived in coordinated bus batches and the Prime Minister moved table to table to interact.
- The menu was entirely vegetarian with a regionally curated spread that included millet-based dishes such as foxtail millet shammi and items like gongura paneer and chilgoza pulao.
- The outreach followed the coalition’s Bihar Assembly victory of 202 out of 243 seats, with Modi reiterating a citizen-centric reform push highlighted in the NDA parliamentary party meeting.
- In a follow-up on December 12, Modi met Uttar Pradesh NDA MPs, urged stronger technology-driven and social media outreach, and told them, “Ye majdoor aapke sath khada, aap bas kaam kariye.”
