Parliament Special Session: Amid various speculations that are going around regarding the agenda of the Parliament's special session, arrangements are being made for group photos of all Member of Parliaments (MPs) ahead of the 5-day special sitting from September 18 to September 22, sources have informed.
Though there was no official confirmation but sources noted this may be an indication that it could be the last session of the current Parliament, and the government may advance the Lok Sabha polls, otherwise slated for April-May.
Group photographs of MPs are generally taken at the beginning and the end of their terms.
The government has not spelt out its agenda for the special session.
Meanwhile, speaking to media, Union Minister Pralhad Joshi informed that 'One Nation, One Election' panel report led by former President Ram Nath Kovind will be discussed in the Parliament.
Mentioning this, the Union Minister further said that why the Opposition was worrying about this adding they don't have faith in the people of the country.
Special Parliament session could be precursor to early Lok Sabha polls, says Nitish Kumar
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar asserted that the Narendra Modi government at the Centre has lent credence to his anticipation of early Lok Sabha polls by convening a special session of the Parliament.
"You need to understand that this special session is a sign that they are thinking of early polls, the possibility of which I have been seeing and sharing with you all for quite some time," Nitish Kumar said while speaking to reporters.
The Parliament, which was last month adjourned sine die after the monsoon session, will meet from September 18 to 22 for a special session of which the Centre has not made public the agenda.
