Amid speculation that the government may bring a Bill to replace an ordinance that took away the Delhi government's control over its bureaucrats, the AAP, Congress, JD(U) and RJD have issued a whip to their Rajya Sabha MPs to be present in the House. The BRS, which is not part of I.N.D.I.A, has also issued a whip asking its MPs to vote against the bill.

Sources said all I.N.D.I.A MPs have been asked to wear black to Parliament as the Opposition plans a big protest on Thursday. Also, the leaders are meeting at 10 AM to discuss further floor strategy.
