Stage set for govt, Oppn MPs’ face-off on Constitution in RS
The Rajya Sabha will take up on Monday a two-day discussion on 75 years of the Constitution in the backdrop of a turbulent last week in the Upper House. “The way the opposition and the ruling side sparred over issues such as George Soros, Adani and the opposition’s notice for the removal of Vice President and Rajya Sabha chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar, it is possible that the issues might find its way in the debate on Constitution,” an opposition leader said. Derek O’Brien, Trinamool Congress leader in the Rajya Sabha, said: “We want Parliament to run, we want to raise issues affecting people. If BJP does not disrupt Parliament again, we will take up the debate on the Constitution and expose them.” The BJP is expected to have strong line up of speakers, including Sitharaman, leader of the House and Union health minister JP Nadda, petroleum minister Hardeep Singh Puri, environment minister Bhupender Yadav, lawmakers Ghanshyam Tiwari, Surendra Nagar, Sudhansu Trivedi and Brijlal. The third largest party in the Rajya Sabha, TMC’s participants will include its floor leader O’Brien, who will speak after Nadda and Kharge, Saket Gokhale, Sagarika Ghose, and Nadimul Haq.
