Central government calls for special session of Parliament for five days from September 18 to 22
Meanwhile Parliamentary Affairs minister Prakalat Joshi said on twitter on thursday that this series of meetings has been organized in view of the amrita period. "Special session of parliament to be held in 5 sessions from 18th to 22nd September. Looking forward to fruitful debates in parliament amid amrita period," minister Prakalat Joshi tweeted. He also emphadata-sized that the government's aim is to hold fruitful debates and discussions in the upcoming parliamentary session. With parties gearing up to data-face assembly elections in five states later this year, the announcement of the special session has come as a surprise in political circles.
The Monsoon Session of parliament ended last month at the Old parliament Building. In this series of meetings, the opposition parties kept raising questions about the violence in Manipur. As the prime minister did not respond, a no-confidence motion was passed to make him speak on the Manipur issue. A three-day debate on the no-confidence motion was held. On august 8, prime minister Modi responded to the criticisms of the opposition parties. In the end, the no-confidence motion was declared a failure.
