The all-party meeting convened by the government is taking place today, 19 July, where the Centre is expected to outline its legislative agenda. This meeting, which is a long-standing convention before every Parliament session, began at 11:00 am in the Main Committee Room of Parliament House Annexe. Opposition parties are expected to demand ouster of Union Education Minister Dharemendra Pradhan over the NEET-UG paper leak and raise the issue of activist Sonam Wangchuk being shifted to a hospital from the protest site at Jantar Mantar.

Opposition parties staged a "walkout" from the all-party meeting after Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju extended an invitation to the National Citizens Party of India (NCPI) to participate in the meeting. Suggesting that this move was a violation of the norms, the Opposition alleged that Lok Sabha Speaker had not yet approved the TMC rebel MPs' merger into “so-called NCPI”.
