The Parliament reconvenes for Day 5 today and the parliamentary ethics committee submitted its report in the lower house recommending the expulsion of Trinamool Congress member Mahua Moitra over the “cash-for-query” allegation.
The Opposition is expected to ask for a division of votes on the report. The BJP has, however, prepared for this and issued a whip to its MPs to remain in the house.
Yesterday, both houses have been adjourned till 11 am today.
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman told the Rajya Sabha yesterday that India’s economy is expanding when other economies are contracting. The Union minister also said India’s second quarter growth of 7.6 per cent has been then highest in the world.
