New Delhi, Aug 12 (IBNS): The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday discussed possibilities to extend the current Budget session of Parliament beyond its scheduled completion time on August 14.

The session began on July 7 with the government struggling to push through crucial legislations in the House.

“Parliament session can be extended beyond 14th August,” senior BJP leader Rajiv Pratap Rudy said.
