He is addressing his own party MPs in a manner befitting a king sitting on a throne. Furthermore the disrespectful way he interacts with his party MPs is not appreciated by them.

By now, it is well known that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is more comfortable delivering monologues than engaging in conversations. As a result, he has tried to avoid press conferences and public interactions with other politicians.
Increasingly, his aversion for genuine interaction seems to be becoming apparent even in closed-door meetings with party leaders.
At the very least, this was the case when Modi met Lok Sabha members from Maharashtra on Tuesday, and Bihar and Chhattisgarh, on Wednesday, according to some people present at the events at the prime minister's residence at 7, Race Course Road.
On both the occasions, the seating arrangement was the same. Modi occupied the lone chair on a raised platform, with the MPs comforting themselves in chairs placed on the floor in front of him, according to five BJP MPs who spoke to Scroll.in.
The most striking thing was Modi’s question to both sets of MPs: “How many of you interact with media? Raise your hands.” On both days, most MPs raised their hands, said the BJP leaders.
“For a while he did not say anything. He just looked at us as if we were committing a crime,” said one of the MPs, who did not understandably wish to be named. “Then Modiji ordered: ‘Nothing that we discuss in the meeting should go out.’”

Modi seems to be treating elected MPs as if they are school children. Furthermore why is he preventing them from interacting with the media? Why the fear of transparency?
