According to the listed agenda of the Lok Sabha, there will be a special discussion on the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the Constitution of India. The discussion will begin after the Question Hour. Before the two-day discussion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a strategy meeting, which was attended by Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Defense Minister Rajnath Singh as well as BJP President JP Nadda. Earlier, Home Minister Amit Shah held a meeting with senior BJP ministers including JP Nadda, Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal, and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju in his office at Parliament House.

Discussion will be held in both houses

The Parliamentary Strategic Group of the Congress also discussed the winter session of Parliament and the discussion on the Constitution. The winter session of Parliament will probably end on December 20. During the winter session of Parliament, the opposition parties demanded a discussion in both houses on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the Constitution by the Constituent Assembly. The deadlock in Parliament was broken after a consensus was reached on this between the ruling party and the opposition.
