Sonia to launch offensive against Government in Parliament

New Delhi, May 6 (IBNS) Days after Rahul Gandhi's vitriolics in Parliament, his mother and Congress president Sonia Gandhi is set to launch an offensive against the NDA government on Wednesday when she is likely to move an adjournment motion.

Gandhi, who is also the Chairperson of the Congress Parliamentary Party, will seek a discussion on the "failure of the institutional mechanism" in the country, with reference to key constitutional posts lying vacant since the Narendra Modi government came to power a year ago.

With  three days remaining in the budget session, the government is fighting to push key legislation, including the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Bill.
 
 On Tuesday, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley told opposition parties in the Lok Sabha, "I beseech you, clear GST."

Opposition parties including the Congress have called for a review of the changes to the GST bill .
 
The opposition has also united against the black money bill and the real estate bill wanting them to be referred to parliamentary panels.
