Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Wednesday expressed concern over "deterioration" in politics and said there used to be "wonderful discussions" in Parliament but today there is "so much noise" in the House. He also said that the people's mindset has changed over the years and asserted there are "very few" people who appreciate good work.
"I have seen politics undergoing a change over the years. Today you can't get votes even by doing good work...Nobody even listens if you talk about something good," he added.
