Congress' deputy leader in Lok Sabha Gaurav Gogoi said the Opposition parties will get an Opportunity to seek answers from the government on key issues in this session starting Monday.

"We have more expectations than before that PM Modi will address the nation in Parliament on key issues - Pahalgam attack and the intelligence failure there. It is also important that we support and thank our armed forces in Parliament," he told reporters after attending an all-party meeting on the eve of the session.

Gogoi said the prime minister should also put light on the statements from US President Trump, who by his claims, has raised fingers at India's pride and its armed forces, and it is only the prime minister of India who can respond to it.

"It is the moral responsibility of the PM to answer on these issues. We hope that PM will fulfil his moral duty," he said.
