Even the Winter Session of Parliament couldn’t bear the heat of the current election campaign in the country. The parliament session that usually begins in the third week of November, is likely to be delayed till campaigning ends for the last phase of the Gujarat assembly elections till December 12 according to The Indian Express.
Generally, the session starts in the second week of November, but this time it has seen a considerable delay due to the polling campaign. As per the rules, the dates have to be announced at least 15 days before the session starts as it gives the MPs enough time to reach Delhi from their constituencies. “There will be a substantial delay in the Winter Session of Parliament. It does not seem like the session will start this month. There are indications that the session may actually start after the last day of campaigning in Gujarat, which is on December 12″, a highly placed source was quoted by IE.
