New Delhi [India], February 10 : Lok Sabha was adjourned sine die on Saturday at the end of the budget session of Parliament. This was also the last day of the 17th Lok Sabha.

PM Modi greeted the members and lauded the role of Speaker Om Birla in running the House.
"These five years were about reform, perform and transform in the country. It is very rare that both reform and perform take place and we can see transformation right in front of our eyes...The country is experiencing this through the 17th Lok Sabha and I firmly believe that the country will continue to bless the 17th Lok Sabha," he said.
PM Modi said that today is an important day in the great tradition of democracy.
"In five years of the 17th Lok Sabha, several important decisions have been taken and facing several challenges everyone according to their capability tried to give right direction to the country," he said.
"In a way the day is to rededicate ourselves to the country after five years of ideological journey and time devoted to the country," he added.
