Demonetisation: Opposition leaders meet in Parliament

November 24, 2016 10:30

Leaders of the opposition parties met in the Parliament to chalk out strategy on the government's offer to end the ongoing logjam over demonetisation.

In an attempt to break the deadlock in Parliament over the demonetisation, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ananth Kumar has reached out to the opposition parties.

However, there is no official confirmation about the participation of the opposition party leaders in the discussion on the matter.

As the government attempts to find a truce with a united opposition, which has disrupted both the Houses of Parliament since the beginning of the Winter Session, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will today attend the Rajya Sabha and is likely to participate in the discussion on demonetisation.

Since the first day of the ongoing Winter Session, the opposition leaders are calling for the Prime Minister to speak on the issue.
