Before wrapping up his remarks, Meghwal noted that he is also an author, mentioning a book he wrote about his wife, and which is titled ‘Ek safar hamsafar ke sath’. “I am the author and my wife is the subject,” he said. He then recited his poem “Hamari aan hai naari, hamaari shaan hai naari”, which drew applause from his party colleagues. When an Opposition member attempted to say something, Speaker Om Birla quipped: “If you interrupt, you’ll have to listen to one more poem”, prompting laughter across the House.A contingent of women from prominent walks of life hailing from Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju’s Lok Sabha constituency of Arunachal West was among the special guests for proceedings related to the Nari Shakti Adhiniyam in Parliament on Thursday.
