While the BJP-led NDA is preparing to push several key legislations during the session, the Opposition INDIA bloc is poised to take on the government on the contentious special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. They are also expected to raise the issue at the all-party meeting on the session’s eve on Sunday.

The BJP leaders say the government is focused on passing key bills and maintaining legislative productivity and has also called the customary all-party meeting before the Winter Session which starts on December 1.
