Parliament Ongoing Sessions Scheduled Until April 2; Lok Sabha Initiates Debate on Insolvency and Bankruptcy Law Amendments

Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju announced that the Indian Parliament will not convene on March 28 and 29, despite a proposal for weekend sessions. Additionally, March 31 has been declared a holiday in observance of Mahavir Jayanti, a significant religious festival for the Jain community, which commemorates the birth of Lord Mahavir, the founder of Jainism.

This decision comes as Parliament continues its legislative session, which includes important discussions and bills. The scheduling of sessions is often influenced by various factors, including public holidays and the need for lawmakers to engage with their constituents. The decision to forgo weekend sittings reflects ongoing efforts to balance legislative duties with the cultural practices of the nation.
