Heartiest congratulations to our Hon. PM Thiru @narendramodi avl on becoming the longest-serving elected Prime Minister in IndiaтАЩs history, completing 4,399 days in office today.
May the almighty bless him with immense strength and good health in continuing his service to our nation.
To my colleagues in AAP who were forced to issue videos saying that тАЬRaghav Chadha failed to raise PunjabтАЩs issues in ParliamentтАЭ, here is a small trailerтАжPicture Abhi Baaki Hai.
Punjab isnтАЩt a talking point for me. It is my home, my duty, my soil, my soulтЭдя╕П
I demanded in Parliament that PATERNITY LEAVE should be a legal right in India.
When a child is born, both parents are congratulated. But caregiving responsibility falls on one. The mother.
A father should not have to choose between caregiving for his newborn and keeping his job. And a mother should not have to go through childbirth & recovery without her husbandтАЩs support
Right after childbirth the woman, needs her husbandтАЩs presence the most. The husbandтАЩs caregiving responsibility towards his wife is equally important.
I raised this issue in Parliament because caregiving is a shared responsibility. Our laws must reflect that.

UNUSED DATA should carry forward into the next cycle, so consumers can use what they have already paid for.

All telecom operators should provide Rollover of Unused Data. What remains unused at the end of the day, should be added to the next dayтАЩs Daily Data Limit, not erased the moment validity ends.

If a consumer consistently under-utilises their data over multiple cycles, there should be a mechanism for Adjustment or Discount of that value, from the following monthтАЩs Recharge Amount. Consumers should not repeatedly pay for capacity they do not use.

Unused data should be treated as the consumerтАЩs digital property. Users should be allowed to transfer their unused data to others, from their Daily Data Limit, just as transfer money to others.
As we build a Digital India, access cannot depend on data that disappears.
If youтАЩve paid for it, it should carry forward and remain yours to use.
тВ╣19,000 crore.
That is what Banks collected in last 3 years just for not maintaining тАШMinimum Account Balance.тАЩ
Not from the rich. Not from big borrowers.
From the poorest accounts in the system.
Their crime? They didnтАЩt have enough money.
A farmer misses the minimum balance - Penalty.
A pensioner withdraws money for medicine - Penalty.
A daily wage worker falls short by a few hundred rupees - Penalty.
The poor keep money in banks for safety. Not to be quietly fined for being poor.
Financial inclusion should protect small savings, not punish small balances.
In Parliament today I proposed ending minimum balance penalties so the banking system stops charging people for their poverty.
Why India needs an тАШInflation Linked Salary Revision ActтАЩ, I argue in Parliament.
Between FY18 and FY26, real wages for salaried Indians fell by 16% because pay hike did not keep pace with rising inflation. That is why in Parliament I raised that a mandatory wage indexation formula is the need of the hour.
Government employees get protection through Dearness Allowance and periodic Pay Commissions. But 85% of IndiaтАЩs formal workforce has zero statutory inflation protection. They are at the mercy of employer discretion and their own negotiation power to get a pay hike.
Other economies already protect workers through automatic indexation.
тАв The US has COLA with automatic revisions
тАв Germany revises wages every 18тАУ24 months
тАв Japan follows the annual Shunto system
тАв Belgium mandates automatic quarterly indexation
India needs statutory inflation protection, a minimum wage increase linked to inflation.
Inflation should not be IndiaтАЩs silent pay cut
