    "content": "Secondly, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Cabinet Secretaries (CSs) appearing before this House is something that I cherish. When I was supporting the amendment of our Standing Orders, I gave an example of what used to happen in the 10th Parliament when Ministers used to appear before the Plenary. This is important because Members will have a direct conversation with the CSs on behalf of our people. It used to be one of the very exciting moments. I recall that time Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale was the Assistant Minister for Health, if I am not wrong. I was deputising the Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs. Sen. Mungatana, MGH was an Assistant Minister in some Ministry. I just want to tell my colleagues that you will see how exciting that moment will be because it will be a direct conversation with the Ministers. During that time, I remember helping many of my colleagues in establishing courts in various parts of the country. This includes where you come from, Mr. Deputy Speaker. Therefore, I really support this. This is a Motion that we need to approve as quickly as possible. After that, we can then move and have more time to deal with matters before the House. I support."
