New Delhi, Nov 11 (IBNS): Prime Minister Nranedra Modi reportedly told his new council of 21 ministers who took oath on Sunday to be prepared to work even on public holidays.

He also advised them to come prepared with proper answers for questions posed to them during Question Hour, reports said.

PM Modi spoke to all his ministers for 20 minutes. During the meeting, he reportedly asked his ministers to be ready with bills pending in both Houses of Parliament along with new legislative proposals.
