The Congress-led Opposition is all set to corner the Narendra Modi government as the Parliament on a wide range of issues including the attack on Indians in the US and the increased ISIS activities in the country as Parliament reconvenes for the second leg of the Budget Session starting from on Thursday.
Congress leader in Lok Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge had said earlier the his party will raise the issues of attack on Indians in the US and the anti-terror operation of Lucknow, in which a youth was killed, as well as the bomb blast in a train near Bhopal.
"On Thursday, these two issues will be raised. We will decide on other issues to be raised in rest of the session later," Kharge said.
Home Minister Rajnath Singh is expected to make a statement on both issues on Thursday, according to informed sources in the Home Ministry.
Meanwhile, Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi has said that the government is prepared to take up any discussion opposition parties want.
"The government is prepared to discuss all issues raised by the opposition subject to permission of the presiding officers," Naqvi said.
The minister said that pending bills, including the ones relating to Goods and Services Tax and Enemy Property, are among those on the government's agenda.
"There are 20 new bills on the agenda of the government," Naqvi said.
Leaders from different parties felt that the mood of the session will depend on the results of assembly elections in five states -- Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Goa, Punjab and Manipur.
Asked about it, Naqvi did not deny the possible impact of the results of assembly polls to five states on the session.
