Atishi said that when the british gave the right to vote to the people of india for the first time in this House. Then the right to one vote was started. Then Lala Lajpat Rai, Pandit madan Mohan Malviya, Motilal Nehru, Vitthal Bhai patel were sitting in this House. In this house, they raised their voice for India's independence. 150 years have passed, but whatever was remembered in this house today is written in history books and we all remember it. Atishi said that whatever we say in this house, whatever we say on behalf of the people, people will read and see it not just today but for hundreds of years. We all have to sit in this house with this responsibility. When Lala Lajpat Rai, Vitthal Bhai patel, Pandit madan Mohan Malviya used to sit here and talk about independence. The thing to remember is that they had the right to speak, but at that time the british did not give them the right to take decisions. Whatever act was passed in this house, the british had a monopoly on it. Hundreds, lakhs of people of this country sacrificed themselves for the right to take decisions, only then this country got independence.
