Since the announcement of the special session, the INDIA alliance has been questioning the Modi government for keeping the agenda of the special session of Parliament a ‘secret’ and expressed disappointment that the Opposition has not been consulted even once. Congress leader Sonia Gandhi, in a letter to the PM, has sought to corner the Central government over the decision to call a special session of Parliament without spelling out the agenda at a time of numerous issues — from the humanitarian crisis in Manipur to Chinese intrusions, the Adani allegations and soaring prices.

She flagged the issue, saying that the session was being held without any consultation with other political parties and none of them had any idea about the agenda for the session. “You have convened a special five-day session of the Parliament beginning 18 September 2023. I must point out that this Special Session has been convened without any consultation with other political parties. None of us have any idea of its agenda,” she said in her letter.

“All we have been communicated is that all five days have been allocated for Government Business. We most certainly want to participate in the Special Session because it will give us an opportunity to raise matters of public concern and importance,” Sonia Gandhi said.
