First two weeks of Monsoon Session have been badly affected as Opposition kept demanding debate on inflation by suspending all other business
Parliament will finally debate price rise in the Lok Sabha on Monday, and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will reply, sources have told NDTV. This comes after two weeks of utter chaos in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha during which the Opposition kept demanding this debate by suspending all other business.
India's annual retail inflation in June climbed to 7.01% in June from 6.26% a year earlier, as per government data released earlier this month. This was above the central bank's tolerance band of 2%-6% for the sixth month in a row.
As the Opposition insisted on raising it in Parliament during the ongoing Monsoon Session, the government claimed it's ready to debate "all issues", but cited Ms Sitharaman's absence due to Covid to say it could not debate price-rise immediately. Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla insisted that he'll give time for issues beyond the listed business only in the Zero Hour, which is earmarked for raising anything related to "urgent public importance" after giving notice.
