The winter session of Parliament is going to start after a few hours. Today, Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar will present the Agricultural Law Return Bill, regarding which controversy has arisen over the language of the Parliamentary note sent to the MPs. Before the start of the session, Prime Minister Narendra Modi can also address the media persons.
Here, before the proceedings of Parliament, Congress has called a meeting of opposition parties. TMC will not participate in this meeting called by Congress. Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge said TMC has a separate meeting at the same time. Because of this, its MPs are not attending the meeting of the opposition.
Here the opposition has made preparations to surround the central government on many issues, including apologizing to the families of the farmers who died during the farmers’ agitation.
Congress MP Manish Tewari has already given notice of adjournment motion before the proceedings.
Congress MP Manikram Tagore has given notice of adjournment motion regarding agriculture laws.
According to the Parliament’s official website, Union Agriculture Minister Tomar will introduce a bill, which will include three agricultural laws, the Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, 2020, the Farmers Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, 2020 and the Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act, 2020 will be proposed to be repealed.
These three laws were passed by the central government last year, which faced unprecedented opposition from opposition parties to farmers’ organisations. For the return of these laws, farmers’ organizations have been sitting around the borders of Delhi for the last year. After continuous protests, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the withdrawal of these laws on 19 November.
The government will introduce 25 more bills in this session
Apart from the agricultural law withdrawal bill, the central government is preparing to introduce 25 other bills during the winter parliamentary session, which will continue till December 23, in which the most important bill is related to banning private cryptocurrencies. However, the government itself is allowing the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to introduce digital currency.
Apart from this, the report of the Joint Committee of Parliament on Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019 will also be tabled in the House during the winter session.
