NEW DELHI THE winter session of Parliament beginning on Tuesday is expected to be tumultuous with the Left parties deciding to move an adjournment motion on the issue of price rise on which the BJP-led NDA will finalise its strategy tomorrow.

“There is a move to bring an adjournment motion in Parliament on price rise issue.

The Left itself will bring the motion. There is no relief to common man and no steps from the government despite Parliament passing a unanimous resolution earlier,” Communist Party of India (CPI) General Secretary A B Bardhan told a press conference in New Delhi on Sunday.

A senior Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) leader said the strategy of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) will be finalised on Monday evening.

An indication that the Left and the Right could make common cause on the issue was available with Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha (Lower House of Indian Parliament) Sushma Swaraj noting that the BJP will come to a decision on it after consultations with others opposed to government.

Opposition leaders have suggested a common strategy will be firmed up after Monday’s meeting of the NDA after which the BJP will discuss floor coordination with other parties.

It could also see opposition unity on the issue of corruption in the wake of new reports of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) on corruption issues as well as on the 2G case.

With Assembly elections for five states including north Indian state Uttar Pradesh scheduled early next year, developments in these states may have its echo in Parliament.

UP Chief Minister Mayawati has already stunned her detractors by coming out with the move of dividing the largest and politically most crucial state into four states.
