Even as the UPA government and the Left today continued to discuss the pension and banking Bills, the BJP drew plans to disrupt both Houses of Parliament tomorrow over demands for clemency to Parliament attack convict Mohammad Afzal. | |
| Flagging off the first day of the winter session by a show of strength in New Delhi, the BJP criticised the government for the fact that Afzal has not been hanged according to the court orders. |
| |
| Former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, without naming Afzal, told the rally that the country was yet to fulfil its duty towards those who died fighting terrorists in the December 13, 2001, attack. |
| |
| Party sources said they would also demand another statement by the prime minister on the Indo-US civilian nuclear deal. |
| |
| "We want to know what kind of amendments will be made in the Bill," a senior BJP leader said. |
