The Cantonment Bill proposes to achieve greater developmental objectives in alignment with municipalities across the country and also facilitate “ease of living” in cantonments, according to a bulletin issued by the Lok Sabha Secretariat.

The Multi-State Cooperative Societies (Amendment) Bill seeks to rationalise the government’s role in cooperatives and increase participation in the working of the multi-state cooperative societies, so as to increase public faith in these societies and create a conducive environment for their growth and development.

With the session scheduled to end on August 12, the Opposition said it anticipates that key Bills would be “bulldozed” through.
