New Delhi:
The combined opposition is all set to press for an adjournment
motion on price rise when the month-long winter session of
parliament begins Tuesday, sources said.
The notice for the motion in the Lok Sabha will be given by
Communist Party of India (CPI) leader Gurdas Dasgupta and is
likely to be backed by the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and
other opposition parties, a Left leader told IANS.
The Left parties are also trying to get the backing of parties
like the Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) that
support the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government, he
added.
Leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj had said that
her party would raise the issues of price rise, corruption and
black money in the session.
At a recent meeting of the chief whips of various parties with
Parliamentary Affairs Minister P.K. Bansal, BJP chief whip in the
Lok Sabha Ramesh Bais said that the party wanted to raise the
issue of inflation and black money.
Meanwhile, MPs from Telangana region are planning to raise the
issue of separate statehood for the region, sources said.
