The Government on Monday (July 20) called for an all party meeting ahead of the Monsoon session of Parliament. The meeting has been convened by Parliamentary Affairs Minister Venkaiah Naidu. Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan has also called for an all party meet which will be held later at noon. Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress (TMC) has skipped the all party meet. The Monsoon session of Parliament is expected to be stormy as the Congress and many opposition parties have joined hands to take on the BJP government over various issues including the Vyapam recruitment scam and the controversy over former IPL chief Lalit Modi.
