Addressing the Rajya Sabha on the first day of the special Parliament session, Leader of the Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge used poetry to take potshots at the Centre.

The Congress chief said, "If you can, change the situation. What's the point in changing the place?"

The remark comes as the legislature is set to be shifted to the new Parliament building on Tuesday.

"If you have to, give jobs to the youth. What's the point in making everyone unemployed," Kharge said.

"If you can't do anything, leave the chair (power)," the Congress leader further said.

Notably, it is the last day of business in the existing building before the legislature shifts to the adjacent new building. A five-day special session of the Parliament from September 18 to 22 has been called by the Centre.
