Parliament’s winter session to commence from December 4

The 2023 winter session of Parliament is scheduled to start on December 4 and end on December 22.

Regarding the winter session of Parliament, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Prahlad Joshi has invited all parties to an all-party meeting on December 2 at 11 a.m. on behalf of the government.

Even though the all-party meeting is scheduled for the day before the session starts, PTI reported that this time it has been moved up by one day, presumably because polls are being counted in five states on December 3.

The session in which the government is eager to pass important bills will be significantly impacted by the outcomes of the assembly elections.

During this winter session of Parliament, the report of the Ethics Committee regarding the “cash-for-query” allegations against Mahua Moitra, the MP for the Trinamool Congress, will be presented in the Lok Sabha.

Before the panel’s recommended expulsion takes effect, the House must adopt the report.

Additionally, since the standing committee on Home recently adopted the three reports, it is likely that the three major bills that aim to replace the IPC, CrPC, and Evidence Act will be discussed during the session.

The appointment of the chief election commissioner and election commissioners is the subject of another important bill that is currently pending in Parliament.

Introduced during the monsoon session, the government failed to push for its passage during the special session of Parliament due to opposition and former chief election commissioner protests. The government’s goal is to equalize the status of the cabinet secretary and the chief election commissioners. They currently have the status of Supreme Court judges.
