As the dates for the Winter Session of Parliament were announced on Saturday, TMC leader Derek O'Brien claimed that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is suffering from "Parliament-ophobia". The Rajya Sabha leader of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) took to X soon after Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju announced the dates for the winter session. "Parliament-ophobia. PM Narendra Modi and team continue to suffer from the acute condition called Parliament-ophobia, a morbid fear of facing Parliament," O'Brien said. He added: "15 day Winter Session announced. Setting dubious records." The Winter Session of Parliament would be held from December 1 to 19.
