Budget Session 2023 LIVE Updates: Hello and welcome to this ABP Live blog to find all the latest news on the Parliament's Budget Session 2023. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will reply to Motion Of Thanks on President's Address in Lok Sabha today. Parliamentary discussions on the Motion of Thanks on the President's Address were held on Tuesday, following three days of disruptions related to the Adani Group. The opposition parties have been demanding a Joint Parliamentary Committee investigation into the matter, leading to stalled proceedings in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. Since the presentation of the Union Budget on February 1, the minimal legislative business has been conducted due to the opposition's protests.
Members of the BJP argue that private entities' affairs should not be discussed within Parliament, and the opposition parties should raise the Adani issue during the customary debate on the President's Address. While some opposition leaders believe it would be more appropriate to bring up the Adani issue during the discussion on the Motion of Thanks, others are advocating for the disruptions to persist.
The Minister of Parliamentary Affairs, Pralhad Joshi, and the Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs, Arjun Ram Meghwal, held meetings with the floor leaders of opposition parties on Monday in an effort to end the deadlock in Parliament. They met with leaders from various political parties, including the Congress' Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, the TMC's Sudeep Bandopadhyay, and the DMK's TR Baalu.
The discussions centred on the belief among the leaders that Parliament should proceed with the discussion on the Motion of Thanks on the President's address. This came after both Houses were adjourned for the day on Monday due to the ongoing disruptions related to the Adani Group.
Meanwhile, on Monday, opposition parties faced division over their strategy for addressing the Adani-Hindenburg controversy that has caused disruptions in Parliament.
While the Trinamool Congress (TMC) advocated for a discussion in both Houses to publicly reveal the Modi government's actions, the party skipped a morning meeting with other opposition leaders. However, the TMC joined a protest led by the opposition outside the Parliament complex, calling for either a Joint Parliamentary Committee investigation or a Supreme Court-monitored probe into the Adani matter.
