TIL Desk/National/New Delhi-A day ahead of the Monsoon Session of Parliament, the Congress on Sunday promised not to block any bills if they had merit. The Opposition is likely to raise the issue of the political instability in Arunachal Pradesh and India’s failure to secure NSG membership.
Finance Minister Arun Jaitely and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ananth Kumar had met Congress leaders Ghulam Nabi Azad and Anand Sharma on Friday to iron out the differences on the GST bill. “We want discussion on NSG and floods. We won’t block any bill, but a bill will be passed on merit only,” Ghulam Nabi Azad said.
At an all-party meeting a day ahead of the Monsoon Session from Monday, leaders of several opposition parties spoke of developments in Arunachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand signalling their intent to train guns on the government, with Leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad saying the states no longer trusted the BJP-led government at the Centre.
