Day 2 of the Parliament Winter Session began at 11 am. Both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha have been adjourned for the day.
Discussions on the Waqf bill, Wayanad landslide and Sambhal violence were likely to remain in focus today.
The winter session of the Parliament began on November 25 but faced early disruptions, resulting in the adjournment of both Houses for the day. No sitting was held on November 26, on the occasion of the 75th Constitution Day.
Earlier on Monday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched an all-out attack on Congress, saying those who were “repeatedly rejected by people disrespect Parliament and democracy”. Addressing the media ahead of the start of the winter session of Parliament, he said he was “hoping for healthy discussions”.
The Congress said on Tuesday that it will launch protests, both inside and outside Parliament, under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi, against the lack of Central assistance for the landslide survivors of Wayanad.
Party leader and Kalpetta MLA T Siddique described the Centre’s alleged reluctance to provide financial aid to the people in landslide-affected areas as an “inhuman” approach.
