3 Jul 2014 in National Assembly:
I also want to appreciate our Senators. This Bill originated from the Senate. It was wise of them. I feel that they did a good job. I want to commend them for the initiative. They rarely get commendation on the Floor of this House. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Members of Parliament are leaders of their counties.

As per the Constitution, drought management and mitigation falls within the ambit of disaster management which is a shared function ...
