Special five-day Parliament session from Sept 18: Govt

Hindustan Times  

Politicians, analysts and commentators went into a tizzy on Thursday after the government said a special session of Parliament will be held from September 18 to 22, with speculation ranging from a Uniform Civil Code legislation to a big-bang celebration of India’s successful G20 presidency, perhaps in the new Parliament building. A senior official of the parliamentary affairs ministry said the agenda of the special session will be finalised next week and could include “a discussion on a key issue and a few bills” A National Democratic Alliance leader ruled out the possibility of a Uniform Civil Code bill being introduced in the special session. Earlier, a special session of Rajya Sabha was held in February 1977 for two days for the extension of the President’s Rule in Tamil Nadu and Nagaland under the second proviso to article 356. During the UPA era, a special session of Lok Sabha was called in July 2008 for a trust vote after the Left parties withdrew support from the Manmohan Singh government.
