Hyderabad: In a first-of-its-kind initiative in FICCI Ladies Organisation (FLO), Hyderabad, a group of 75 members visited the Parliament House in New Delhi on Tuesday.
The objective of the visit was to familiarise its members with Parliament procedures and witness Parliament Session.
Sharing the experience FLO chairperson, Shubhraa Maheshwari said, “The building itself is a historic one and is a colonial-era building. Further witnessing the Parliament House of the largest Republic and the largest democracy of the world is an experience of a different kind, shares.”
“The group witnessed Loksabha session sessions twice. It is an unusual opportunity. Normally we get to meet only a couple of MPs or Ministers at a time. Seeing hundreds of Parliamentarians working together in the Lower house was a unique and exhilarating experience,” added Shubhraa Maheshwari.
“Meeting with the Honourable Speaker of Loksabha, Omji Birla in his personal chamber was a rare chance for our members. How gracious enough to take time out and host us,” she added in a press note.
