Stormy debates on cow vigilantism, Kashmir unrest, stand-off with China in Doklam are some of the issues that are expected to dominate the discourse of Parliament in the Monsoon Session this year. The first day of the session coincides with voting for President. Opposition parties however signalled they will also take on the government over issues like the fallout of the Goods and Services Tax or GST, farmers' distress and policy towards Pakistan as well. The government, on its part, is seeking cooperation of the opposition in getting key legislative business passed and has lined up around two dozen bills in the session that will have around 20 sittings.
