AMID protests and walkouts, the Rajya Sabha witnessed this year witty comments, humour, poetry, shayaris, couplets, Sanskrit shlokas, quotes, analogies, and even filmy songs recited by its members.

The artistic expressions were skillfully employed by the members during moments of heated debate, both in support of and opposition to government Bills and policies.

The Upper House has recorded every moment of eloquence on its official website.

While members from the ruling coalition used these literary and rhetorical tools to laud the Modi government's achievements and vision, the Opposition recited them as critiques of policies.
