NEW DELHI: The battle lines between the government and opposition seems to have been drawn even as the Modi regime gets ready to make a determined push to pass the Insurance Bill and Coal Bill in the Rajya Sabha The six-month-old government requires to showcase a bouquet of economic legislations to re-assure the industry and investors after crash in industrial production and fall in revenue collection. However, CBI’s arrest of Trinamool chief Mamata Banerjee’s key ministerial colleague and with most Opposition parties viewing the Sangh Parivar’s ‘reconversion’ programme as part of its bid to polarise society, there is a likelihood of an intense political tug-ofwar between the government and Opposition in Parliament this week.Trinamool MPs are likely to raise the issue of ‘CBI misuse’ on Monday, which could mark a stormy beginning to RS proceeding this week.The listing of the amended insurance bill for Tuesday’s business in the Rajya Sabha shows the government’s determination to push the key legislation in the House where it is in minority.Though t h e Congress helped the government to get the bill through in the select committee, it is unlikely to go out of the way to help it if ‘wounded’ Trinamool MPs unleash aggression to block the bill. With Left and Janata Parivar too opposed to the bill, Congress is taking a strategic and diplomatic position.“Since the insurance bill is the baby of the UPA government , we support it in principle. That is why we did not oppose it in the select committee. But we would like to look at the amended bill. And, it is the government’s responsibility to ensure that the House functions smoothly for the bill to be discussed and voted upon,” said a senior Congress functionary. On its part, the government has managed the support of BJD, AIADMK and TRS.As far as the coal bill, passed in the Lok Sabha last Friday, is concerned, almost the entire Opposition is united that it should be processed by a select committee as it was passed sans processing by a standing committee in the Lower House . The government has, meanwhile, reminded the Opposition that if the bill is not passed, it will have to repromulgate the ordinance, to which an Opposition MP asked: “Does it mean this government will rule through ordinances and get rid of legislative process and system of standing committees in Parliament?”
