Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said that the government believes in debating every issue in an open manner, as it sets the stage for very good decisions.

Speaking outside Parliament, before the start of the Winter Session, PM Modi said, “I am sure we will have good debates on various issues, parties will present their views on issues. We will talk about people's aspirations.” 

“Today the session of the Parliament is commencing. The last session witnessed the historic GST passage. A major step has been taken in the direction of One Nation One Tax, with passage of GST Bill in previous Parliament session,” he added.

However, the Prime Minister did not speak about the much contentious issue of demonetisation which has got the opposition united.
