New Delhi, Aug 14: Exuding confidence about the cohesiveness of ruling NDA at the Centre, Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani tonight said the opposition-sponsored no-confidence motion would provide an "excellent" opportunity" to the government to highlight its achievements. "This comes as an excellent opportunity to the government to explain its achievements which Congress governments could not do in over four decades of their rule," Advani told reporters at a function organized to mark the first anniversary of Aliance Air's Inflight magazine 'Darpan.' Normally, the government gets the chance to publicise its achievements during discussion on the motion of thanks on the President's address to Parliament, but the no-confidence motion would provide it with the same in an elaborate manner.
