Central Govt Calls All-Party Meeting on Dec 2 Ahead of Winter Parliament Session

Parliament

The government has scheduled an all-party meeting on December 2 in preparation for the Winter Session of Parliament, set to commence on December 4.

The Winter session, slated to conclude on December 22, has been called a day earlier than usual due to the counting of votes for five states on December 3, where ongoing polls are taking place.

Parliamentary Affairs Minister Prahlad Joshi, representing the government, has organized the all-party meeting on December 2, 2023.

The Winter session will commence one day after the announcement of results for assembly polls in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Mizoram, and Telangana, with the outcome expected to reverberate in the session.

During the session, consideration may be given to three significant bills aiming to replace the IPC, CrPC, and the Evidence Act. Additionally, the session is likely to address the report from the Ethics Committee concerning “cash for query” allegations against Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra, with the committee recommending her expulsion.

As the government endeavors to advance its legislative agenda, opposition parties are anticipated to advocate for discussions on issues pertinent to their concerns.
