"Monsoon Session, 2023 of Parliament will commence from 20th July and continue till 11th August. Urge all parties to contribute towards productive discussions on Legislative Business and other items during the Monsoon Session," tweets Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi.

The session is likely to be stormy with the Opposition joining hands against the Narendra Modi-led BJP government. With the debates for the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) strengthening, it is likely to be fielded by the Centre.

The Parliament will gather after Prime Minister Modi presented a strong case for a Uniform Civil Code, and efforts to accelerate discussions on the matter have begun.

The Monsoon Session is anticipated to begin in the existing Parliament building before moving to the new one.
