It may be known that the winter session of the Parliament was marred by an uproar. 17 opposition parties had walked out in the Rajya Sabha over the Tawang issue. Leader of Opposition and National President of Congress Mallikarjun Kharge had also called a meeting of opposition parties on this matter. Along with this, there was a lot of uproar in Parliament over Kharge's controversial statement on Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This was the reason that the winter session of the Parliament was terminated prematurely.
