Special five-day session of Indian Parliament begins today
The special five-day session of the Indian Parliament will begin on Monday.
The government last week revealed that the session will discuss the 75-year history of parliament.
The government will also clear four bills, including the one on appointment of the Chief Election Commissioner which has generated much controversy.
A bulletin from the Lok Sabha secretariat said on Sept 18, a discussion will be held on "Parliamentary Journey of 75 years starting from Samvidhan Sabha -- Achievements, Experiences, Memories and Learnings".
The legislative business will include the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners (Appointment, Conditions of Service and Term of Office) Bill, the Post Office Bill, the Advocates (Amendment) Bill, and the Press and Registration of Periodicals Bill.
The revelation comes after days of speculation that the name of the country could be changed from India to Bharat, fuelled by the repeated use of "Bharat" in multiple official communications during the G20.
Others maintained that the government might bring bills to introduce 'One Nation, One Election', Uniform Civil Code (UCC), and women's reservation.
