Monsoon Session of Parliament will begin from 14th of this month and continue till October 1. A notification issued by Lok Sabha (LS) Secretariat said that President Ram Nath Kovind has called the Lower House of Parliament to meet on Monday, September 14, at 9 AM.

Rajya Sabha (RS) will also meet at a different time on the same day, as it has been decided to stagger the sitting of the two houses due to the COVID-19 guidelines. Cabinet Committee on Parliamentary Affairs had earlier recommended that Parliament's Monsoon session be held from September 14 to October 01. Hectic preparations are underway for the session with several first-time measures because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The measures include testing of all MPs, staggered sitting of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha and use of both chambers and galleries to accommodate members while following physical distancing norms.
