- The Opposition is likely to continue its protests as it rejected the Centre’s invitation for a meeting to resolve the logjam caused by the suspension of Rajya Sabha MPs.After a chaotic week and continuous protest by the opposition parties, Parliament will on Monday resume for the final week of the winter session this year. By Friday last week, the Opposition demand in Lok Sabha grew stronger for the resignation of the minister of state for home, Ajay Misra ‘Teni’, whose son is a prime accused in the Lakhimpur Kheri violence case.
- There is also no resolution in sight in the Rajya Sabha as a united opposition rejected the government's outreach to resolve the logjam. Opposition members of the Upper House have been holding a protest at the Gandhi Statue demanding revocation of suspension of the 12 MPs.A government invitation went to select members of the Opposition including the Congress, Trinamool Congress, Shiv Sena, and the CPI(M) on Sunday, according to news agency PTI. A meeting was to be convened at 10 am on Monday by the Leader of the House Piyush Goyal.
