Almost two weeks were over but no business was conducted until now in the current Parliament sessions. It is because Congress and its alliance partners are not letting both houses to function. They stall the Parliament proceedings demanding resignations of Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj and Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundar Raje in Lalit Modi case and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivaraj Singh Chouhan in connection with Vyapam case. However, when the Modi government is not succumbing to their pressures, they keep disrupting the proceedings in both houses.

Hence, Parliamentary Affairs Minister M Venkaiah Naidu has summoned an all-party meeting to resolve this problem. Currently, the meeting is going on in the Parliament central hall. Sushma Swaraj stated that she has not asked Britain Government to help Lalit Modi in getting a visa. But, Congress party is not ready to buy her arguments. Venkaiah Naidu assured the opposition MPs that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will respond to their questions on these two matters, if they allow the house proceedings.

But, Congress party is unlikely to co-operate with the ruling NDA government if seen in the context of its MP Shashi Tharoor’s statement made when current sessions of the Parliament begins. He disclosed that his Congress party adopted a strategy of disrupting the Parliament proceedings in the present sessions. Party president Sonia Gandhi scolded him for disclosing party strategy to media. Hence, even the ongoing all-party meeting also may not find a solution to this stalemate.
