Ahead of the Parliament session, Prime Minister Narendra Modi meets top Ministers in New Delhi on Monday (August 10). Parliament is likely to remain paralysed during the last days of monsoon session as Congress showed no signs of relenting on its protests on the Lalit Modi and Vyapam issues and hit out at the BJP for its "politics of abuse". The ruling party too sharpened its attack on the Congress saying it had played the role of "obstructionist and destructive" opposition during the session as it was "politically bankrupt". 25 Congress members of the Lok Sabha, who were suspended by Speaker Sumitra Mahajan for five days for unruly behaviour, will be back in the House today. Congress leaders, however, parried questions on whether the MPs would again be showing placards in the house, an act that had angered the presiding officer.
