Parliament impasse: Kamal to meet Sushma today

April 29, 2013 09:27

Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kamal Nath will on Monday meet Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj to end the logjam in Parliament and to ensure that the Congress-led UPA government is able to push important legislation in the last two weeks of the Budget Session.

Kamal Nath also held talks with the BJP veteran LK Advani on Friday.

The opposition parties led by the BJP has stalled the proceedings in Parliament for most of the session ever since the Houses reconvened after a recess, over various issues.

A united opposition is expected to scale up its protests after the CBI's admission in the Supreme Court that a version of its report on the coal allocation investigation, submitted to apex court judges last month, was shared with Law Minister Ashwani Kumar, officials in the Coal Ministry and the Prime Minister's Office.
