The opposition will not field its candidate for the Lok Sabha Speaker’s post after a consensus was reached with the ruling BJP-led NDA, sources said.
The government had deployed Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju to build a consensus on the Lok Sabha Speaker candidate after the opposition INDIA bloc said it was considering its options.
On Tuesday, Om Birla, who was the Speaker in the previous Lok Sabha, held a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, indicating that the NDA may opt for continuity.
