"The Prime Minister said that we all need to cooperate with each other on the issues of public interest. He underlined that in a democracy both the government and the Opposition share their inputs for efficient governance," parliamentary affairs minister Narendra Singh Tomar told mediapersons

"The Prime Minister also said that the government was ready to discuss all issues as per rules and procedures. If anybody wants to bring something to the government's notice inside the House or even outside, we are open to it," he said.

Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha and Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad said in this Parliament session, his party would push for a joint parliamentary committee to probe the Rafale jet deal. It would also want to discuss the autonomy of the RBI, said reports.
