Day two of the Monsoon session of Parliament had a stormy start. It commenced with the opposition creating pandemonium and concluded with a consternating whirlwind as BSP chief Mayawati handed her resignation from the Rajya Sabha for 'not being allowed to speak on the dalit issue'. Stormy debates on cow vigilantism, farmers' protests are expected to dominate the discourse of the Parliament in the Monsoon Session. On the third day of the Monsoon session, the Upper House is set to discuss mob violence against minorities. 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.
