The Budget Session of Parliament, which began as a new session on April
25, 2016 is likely to end early with Lok Sabha being adjourned sine die late
this evening and Rajya Sabha tomorrow.
It is being done in view of the last leg of campaigning for assembly elections in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, besides the fact that there is no official business left for the current session, which in normal case would have ended on May 13.
"It's a consensus decision," said a government source, indicating that the Opposition parties were also fully on board for an early conclusion of the session.
Note
The Budget Session of Parliament had begun on February 23,2016 and concluded on March 16,2016
There was the scheduled recess between the first and second part.
However, the session was prorogued to allow promulgation of an ordinance to bring and pass a Vote on Account for Uttarakhand, which was under President's rule.
An ordinance cannot be promulgated when Parliament is in session.
So, the house was prorogued and the second part of the Budget Session began as a new session on April 25,2016
