Lok Sabha Speaker Sumita Mahajan will hold a meeting of all political parties tomorrow, ahead of the Monsoon Session of Parliament beginning July 18.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will not attend the meeting but will later arrive for the dinner Mahajan will host in reception of all leaders.

Meanwhile, the Opposition meeting on Parliament strategy is scheduled for 6 pm today at the chamber of Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad.

The government is building the momentum to push the anti-instant triple talaq Bill which was referred to the select committee of Rajya Sabha in the Budget Session after several parties raised objections to some provisions.

PM Narendra Modi two days back had attacked the Congress for being anti-Muslim women. His reference was to the triple talaq Bill.

Congress leader Anand Sharma today said the government was hell bent on provoking the Opposition by making “false statements and misleading the nation”. “PM’s mentality is sick,” he said.

The Monsoon Session will see six Acts replacing Ordinances besides other government businesses, and will be crucial to PM’s political scheme of things insofar as pushing the legislative agenda of the government goes.
