The budget session is underway in the Parliament and the House will resume discussion on the motion of thanks on the President's address that was initiated by a BJP MP on Wednesday.

In a speech slamming the BJP-government, Mr Gandhi said that the country has been surrounded by adversaries on all sides and is isolated in the region.
Four reports of department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Transport, Tourism and Culture; one report of the Joint Committee on Offices of Profit; and one report of the Department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Energy on Financial constraints in Renewable Energy Sector will be tabled in the Rajya Sabha on today.
