In the voting that followed, 298 members supported the bill, while 230 opposed it, resulting in its defeat. The outcome marked a rare legislative loss for the government on a key reform measure it had been pushing for.PM Modi’s last address to the nation was on September 21, when he talked about GST reforms.
