NEW DELHI: The government may agree to hold short duration discussions on management of coronavirus and issues of price rise during the monsoon session of Parliament starting Monday, if opposition so demands, official sources said on Friday.
With opposition parties likely to raise issues of retail price inflation, farm laws and Covid “mismanagement” during the monsoon session starting July 19, the government is “well prepared” to respond to the House on all the measures it took to tackle the spread of coronavirus in the country, said the sources.
The government is also likely to take up nine pending bills for passage, introduce 14 new legislations and replace at least two ordinances with bills. It is, however, unlikely that the government will bring a legislation to back the formation of the ministry of cooperation, since there is no constitutional mandate of a law in this regard.
In legislative business, the Commission for Air Quality Management in National Capital Region and Adjoining Areas Bill, 2021, is expected to replace, with some amendments, the lapsed ordinance. An ordinance prohibiting agitations and strikes by those engaged in essential defence services — The Essential Defence Services Ordinance 2021 — brought in in light of indefinite strike calls by major federations of the Ordnance Factory Board (OFB) will also be replaced by the Essential Defence Service Bill, 2021.
