New Delhi, Feb 23 (IBNS): With the last two sessions witnessing repeated disruptions, President Pranab Mukherjee, who addressed a joint session of the Parliament, on Tuesday urged members to to discharge their 'solemn responsibilities' in a spirit of cooperation and mutual accommodation.

He said the Parliament is a place for debate and discussion, and not disruption or obstruction.

" Our Parliament reflects the supreme will of the people. Democratic temper calls for debate and discussion, and not disruption or obstruction. Aa No Bhadra Kratvo Yantu Viswataha - let noble thoughts come from all directions, should be the spirit behind debate in this temple of democracy," Mukherjee said.

"Being a member of this great institution bestows great honour as well as important responsibilities. My Government will constantly strive for smooth and constructive conduct of Parliamentary business. I urge all Members of the Parliament to discharge their solemn responsibilities in a spirit of cooperation and mutual accommodation. Let us all collectively endeavour to build a flourishing and prosperous India," he said.
