Trinamool Congress members found themselves under attack in both Houses of Parliament, following the telecast of a sting operation that showed party functionaries accepting cash from a fictitious private company.

The Lok Sabha saw the trading of charges and name-calling between members,

while in the Rajya Sabha, Opposition parties asked the Centre to hold a proper investigation into the matter. The issue will continue to cause disruptions in Parliament which is yet to see the clearance of bill such as the Whistle Blower Protection (Amendment) Bill, 2015 and Enemy Property (Amendment and Validation) Bill, 2016.

Meanwhile, Tuesday was a good day for Parliament after it cleared the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) bill to regulate the sector and protect home buyers from land shark.
