Parliament is yet to constitute the Joint Committee that will review the three Bills on the removal of the Prime Minister, Chief Ministers, and Ministers arrested on serious criminal charges for 30 days. The Lok Sabha had passed the resolution to refer the Bills to the panel two weeks ago.

While the Congress, which is the single largest Opposition party in the Lok Sabha, is yet to take a decision on joining the panel, the Trinamool Congress, the Samajwadi Party, and the Shiv Sena (UBT) have declared their intent to keep away.
