Narendra Modi government's first big test in Parliament

  • 5 years ago
The Narendra Modi government faces its first test in Parliament as the Budget Session begins today. The Opposition is expected the corner the government on the issue of price rise and rail fare hike.

The Opposition parties made their intentions clear at an all-party meeting called by Speaker Sumitra Mahajan on Saturday.

The Opposition is also expected to raise the controversy over the government rejecting the name of former Solicitor General Gopal Subramanium for appointment as a judge of the Supreme court and the rape case controversy surrounding Union minister Nihalchand Meghwal.

The session will begin today and conclude on August 14.

"The session will have 28 sittings and 168 working hours. Since the Standing Committees for various ministries are yet to be constituted, the demands for grants for various ministries will be passed by both Houses by July 31 after discussion in Parliament instead of the committees," Ms Mahajan said after the meeting on Saturday.
