Liberhan report, Lalgarh likely to generate heat in Parliament
Press Trust of India / New Delhi July 1, 2009, 12:33 IST

The submission of the Liberhan Commission report has raised prospects of generating political heat in the first Budget session of Parliament beginning tomorrow after the general elections.  

The scenario for the session, which was expected to be a business-like affair till now, has suddenly undergone a change with main opposition BJP attacking the Congress-led coalition after the presentation of the report of the Liberhan Commission that went into the Babri Masjid demolition.        

Though the contents of the report, presented to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, were not known, the BJP has alleged that the Centre has "begun its conspiracy".  

Congress has hit back as to why the NDA did not scrap the Commission during its six-year rule and its leaders hope to "corner" BJP on the issue. In the finance-centric session, the Railway Budget would be presented to the Lok Sabha on July three and the General Budget for 2009-10 on July six. The Economic Survey would be presented on the opening day tomorrow.        

The Lalgarh incident is also expected to generate heat during the month-long session with the CPI(M)-led Left Front government in West Bengal likely to be pilloried by both Congress and BJP.

The Trinamool Congress, an arch detractor of the Marxists, is expected to make all out efforts to extract political mileage out of the police operations in Lalgarh and take the opportunity to attack the Left Front government in West Bengal.        

The attacks on Indian students in Australia is expected to figure prominently with the racist incidents raising concerns all over the country.        

The opposition parties are also expected to raise the situation caused by truant monsoon and its effect on power, drinking water and crops, price rise and impact of recession on labour.      

UPA sources have said that the government will make efforts to introduce a bill to provide food security.  

However, the much-delayed Women's Reservation Bill is unlikely to come up in this session as the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Law and Justice scrutinising the Bill is yet to be reconstituted.
