Opposition MPs boycott Joint Parliamentary Committee meeting formed to examine Waqf Board Amendment Bill 2024

The Opposition members will be writing a letter to the Lok Sabha Speaker, Om Birla, seeking an intervention because they feel the forum was used to level charges against the Opposition, and since the Chairman of the Committee Jagdambika Pal is a BJP MP, there is lesser probability of impartiality.

Opposition has much work to do

The significance of last Friday’s meeting of opposition parties, called by Congress president Sonia Gandhi, was that it was the first formal attempt made by the parties, with participation from the Congress, to form a common plank against the BJP. It is important that Sonia Gandhi took the initiative for such a meeting after some recent exploratory moves by other parties. Yashwant Sinha’s Rashtra Manch had convened a meeting of regional parties in June which was attended by leaders of eight parties, including the Trinamool Congress (TMC), the Samajwadi Party (SP), the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and the CPM. Last month, West Bengal Chief Minister and TMC leader Mamata Banerjee convened a meeting that put forward the idea of an opposition alliance for the 2024 general elections. There have also been informal gatherings and discussions on the theme.
