The Budget Session of Parliament will start up again on Monday. Both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, which are the two houses of Parliament, will meet. They were closed for a break during Holi and are set to convene again at 11:00 am.
In the Lok Sabha, several important topics will be discussed, including reports from committees that review different areas of government. BJP MP Radha Mohan Singh and SP MP Virendra Singh will talk about the Defence Committee’s reports. Congress MP Shashi Tharoor and BJP MP Arun Govil will share the fifth report from the External Affairs Committee, focusing on the Ministry of External Affairs’ budget for 2025-26. Also, Lok Sabha members PC Mohan and Godam Nagesh will present reports on social justice initiatives.
Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan will propose a motion to elect two members to the court of the University of Delhi. The session will also discuss and vote on the budget requests from the Ministry of Railways for the upcoming year.
The second part of the budget session began on March 10 and will last until April 4. Recently, the Rajya Sabha faced chaos over Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge’s controversial “thokenge” remark about the government’s policies. He stated this while responding to Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan after a disagreement about the three-language policy.
Many BJP leaders were upset, saying Kharge’s words were disrespectful and demanded an apology. Kharge quickly apologized, saying he did not intend to offend the chair but was addressing the government’s policies instead.
Aside from that issue, Union Education Minister Pradhan clarified the government’s view on the National Education Policy. He responded to accusations from the DMK regarding the promotion of the Hindi language in Tamil Nadu. Pradhan emphasized that the central government does not want to divide society through language and underscored the importance of Tamil as an ancient language.
