NEW DELHI: Faced with a delicate situation, the Government on Tuesday arrived at a compromise with the Opposition and decided to take up a discussion on price rise in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday under a rule which entails voting.

Parliamentary affairs minister Pawan Kumar Bansal told reporters that the resolution on the price rise will be framed in such a way that it would be acceptable to all.

The resolution is likely to express concern over price rise and spell out immediate effective steps to check inflation.

Finance minister Pranab Mukherjee will reply to the day-long debate which will start at noon, Bansal said.

As the resolution will be a consensual one, it saves the government from any embarrassment even as it will be put to vote. The ruling party too has given a notice for it.

Former finance minister Yashwant Sinha of BJP is likely to initiate the discussion. NDA convenor Sharad Yadav as also K S Rao from Congress have also given notice.

The decision was taken in a meeting of the Business Advisory Committee after which Bansal and his two junior ministers Rajiv Shukla and Harish Rawat had tea with Leader of the Opposition Sushma Swaraj in her Parliament House office.The discussion is expected to pave the way for the smooth running of Parliament after the disruption of both Houses on the first two days of the Monsoon session.

Ahead of the session, Congress leaders had admitted in private that it would be difficult for the ruling alliance if the Opposition closed ranks on the issue of corruption and price rise and pressed for discussion under rules which entail voting. (PTI)
