A teleprompter will be in use for the first time in the Central Hall of Parliament when US President Barack Obama addresses MPs on November eight.
As per the tentative programme being worked out, the address by Obama, who once said that "America has its roots in the India of Mahatma Gandhi", would not be for more than 20 minutes.
The president's programme in Parliament House complex itself will be less than an hour affair, Parliament sources said today. It is scheduled to start at 5pm.
The programme will feature a welcome speech by vice president Hamid Ansari and a vote of thanks by Lok Sabha speaker Meira Kumar. The US president would also sign the Golden Book, the visitors diary of Parliament.

LOL!! Hilarious and oh, so true!!
ROTFL!
So how is our Imposter-in-Chief playing in the media in India and what is the common man saying about him? Just curious. Are they laughing at him?
This is part of a HUGE trip, with lots of our taxpayer dollar$$$$. Do you know he is taking over a 570-room Deluxe hotel in India? 570 rooms! Several jets are accompanying him on this trip. Then on to...Indonesia...India is just part of this. I mean, there will be millions of dollars spent.
Obama is taking off after the election on a vacation, well, maybe a day here or there for official biz, but, 570 rooms! I hope there is a thread on this soon. Unbelievable.
My wish is that this trip, full of wasteful dollars, somehow reaches the consciousness of the media, at least Fox. More money spent by Michelle, more vacation days by Obama. All while our country is reeling from a recession, with so much overspending, facing inflation, on and on.
What is our presidents response? Lets take over the Taj Mahal! It is only $3,352.00 for a 7-night stay! And that is for a regular room, not the many luxury suites - there are over 40 of those, and the Obamas have reserved all 570 rooms.
So...lets see: $3,352/7-day stay, times 570 rooms = $1,910,640. Almost $2 million dollars. Does not include tips, breakfast, lunch, dinner, conference rooms, clothes sent up to Michelle.
Am I exaggerating? That is for 7 days. Per day: $272,948.
Does not include the 3 jets to get there, special limos, gifts, food, good grief. This is an outrage. I still am steamed.
