NEW DELHI, Feb 23:

Parliament today paid trib-utes to soldiers killed in terrorattacks or while securing thenation’s boundaries as BudgetSession commenced with thejoint address to both Houses byPresident Pranab Mukherjee.

Paying homage to the sevensecurity personnel killed inPathankot terror attack, RajyaSabha Chairman Hamid Ansarisaid, “Such dastardly attacks andacts of senseless violence deserveto be condemned in the strongestterms and must be confronted withdetermination and firmness”.

Over a week ago, Rajya SabhaMP of BJP from UttarakhandTarun Vijay had called for everyparliament session to begin withhomage to soldiers who gave uptheir lives for the country.

Parliament sessions current-ly begin with offering homage toprominent figures who havepassed away between sessionsand to victims of calamitiesaround the world.

The BJP MP’s argument wasthat martyred soldiers too mustbe remembered for their braveefforts. He had raised the matterduring the winter session of par-liament and claimed that he hadreceived support from severalpoliticians.

Even today when RajyaSabha Chairman had paid hom-age to prominent persons includ-

ing former MPs of the UpperHouse, Vijay rose to speak anddemanded that tributes be paidto martyred soliders.

In his obituary references,Ansari also talked about fourjawans, who lost their lives in anavalanche in Ladakh, and eightjawans of Madras Regiment,who were killed in an avalanchein Jammu and Kashmir.

The Rajya Sabha Chairmanalso paid homage to Lance NaikHanumanthappa, who was res-cued alive after being buriedunder 35 feet of snow for sixdays but later succumbed at anArmy Hospital.

“The country will alwaysremember the sacrifices of thesesoldiers in securing the internation-

al border. The loss of precious livesand injury to people in all thesetragic incidents is indeed painfuland unfortunate,” Ansari said.

The House observed silenceas a mark of respect to the slainsoldiers.

Terming the attack on thePathankot air base as a “cowardlyact”, Lok Sabha Speaker SumitraMahajan led the Lower House inpaying tributes to the security per-sonnel killed in the incident.

The House also condoled thedemise of personnel in the ava-lanche which struck an armypost in Siachen recently.

Meanwhile, the RajyaSabha Chairman also expressedsorrow over passing away offormer MPs of the House

including Jammu and KashmirChief Minister MuftiMohammed Sayeed, formerLok Sabha Speaker and ex-Governor Balram Jakhar, for-mer General Secretary of CPIA B Bardhan, former journalistturned Parliamentarian KapilVerma, M Sankaralingam andMrinalini Sarabhai, a classicaldancer. (PTI)
