Dehradun, Feb. 1 -- President Droupadi Murmu may not have been able to relieve Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi's boredom with her address on the opening day of Parliament's Budget Session, but she did chart out effectively the course of action the government intends to take. This also involved reminding members about what has been achieved in the past and the direction this gives to the nation. Even a brief telling required a substantial effort, evoking sympathy from veteran MP Sonia Gandhi on how tired the 'poor lady' had become. Quite clearly, the necessary attention was not being paid to the substance of the speech because it will not play much of a role in the opposition's scheme of things.
