2019 Video Of PM Modi's "Prediction" On No-Confidence Vote Goes Viral

A video of the statement was shared by government sources who called it PM Modi's "prediction".

On a day two notices for a no-confidence motion against the government were filed in parliament, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's comment in parliament in 2019 has gone viral, with many in the ruling BJP calling it his "prediction".

In a video from 7 February 2019 of a debate on the President's speech during the Budget session, the Prime Minister is heard saying that the opposition should prepare for yet another no trust motion in 2023. He was referring to his government defeating such a motion the year before.

"I want to offer my best wishes... prepare so much that you get a chance to bring a no-confidence again in 2023," PM Modi said in Lok Sabha, drawing laughter and desk-thumping from ruling party MPs.
