Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said that he looks forward to a 'productive' Budget Session in the Parliament, as it begins its second spell in the Lok Sabha.
The Prime Minister took to twitter to share his message.
"Parliament session begins today. I look forward to a productive session, filled with constructive debates on several issues," he posted.
The Rajya Sabha will reconvene the Budget Session on April 23.
Among the key legislations to be passed during this period will be the controversial Land Acquisition Bill, the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill and the Constitution Amendment Bill for introduction of Goods and Services Tax (GST), among others.
The Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led National Democratic Alliance (ND) has a clear majority of 335 in the Lok Sabha but is weaker in the Rajya Sabha, with just 63 seats.
Both Houses will have 13 sittings each till May 8.
