New Delhi: The Monsoon Session of Parliament will be held from July 18 to August 10, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ananth Kumar said on Monday. The session will comprise 18 working days.
The Centre is planning to pass the Constitution (123rd) Amendment Bill, 2017, that seeks to accord constitutional status to the National Commission for Backward Classes (NCBC). Other Bills, including those pertaining to Triple Talaq and the Transgender, will be tabled, informed Kumar.
The previous Parliamentary session, the budget session in April, was mostly a washout. During the session, the Lok Sabha (LS) spent just 1% of its allotted time on legislative business even as the Rajya Sabha (RS) spent 6%. The actual hours that the Houses sat as against those available was 21% for the LS and 27% for the RS.
