Speaker, let me thank you for this opportunity and use this occasion to make my Maiden Speech as well. I would like to support this Motion and also thank God for enabling me and the people of Bomachoge Borabu that I represent to go through a grueling election. It has happened for a long time. Hon. Speaker, I was elected for the first time to this House in 2002. I was re- elected in 2007 and went out in 2009 for another by-election; that was my third participation in elections which I lost. I was re-elected in March, 2013, but that was disputed and I went back for a by-election and I was re-elected."}
