New Delhi: Parliament's ongoing Winter Session may end on Friday, a week ahead of schedule, sources said today. The decision, the sources said, was taken at a meeting of the Business Advisory Committee, which manages the schedule of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. Meanwhile, Chaos ensued in the Rajya Sabha as the Winter Session resumed today. The BJP members demanded an apology from Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge over his remarks against the ruling party, leading to a war of words. The Parliament has been witnessing Opposition protests over the latest India-China clashes in Arunachal Pradesh. The Opposition parties walked out of the Rajya Sabha yesterday, yet again, after their demands for a debate on Chinese incursion on the borders were rejected.
Here are the Highlights from Parliament Winter Session:
