The Trinamool Congress will also raise the issue of "political vendetta" against non-BJP ruled States in Parliament and also question the Union government on "holding back of funds for schemes such as MNREGA"
The TMC will raise in Parliament issues such as LIC and SBI's risk exposure, price rise of essential commodities, unemployment and "misuse" of central agencies during the second phase of the Budget Session, its Rajya Sabha floor leader Derek O'Brien has said.
He said West Bengal Chief Minister and TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee and the party's all-India general secretary Abhishek Banerjee decided on the floor strategy in a meeting also attended by the party's floor leaders of the two Houses.
Sudip Bandyopadhyay is the TMC's Lok Sabha floor leader.
Mr. O'Brien said LIC's risk exposure and price rise affect the lives of the common man and their savings and should be highlighted.
The Trinamool Congress will also raise the issue of "political vendetta" against non-BJP ruled States in Parliament and also question the Union government on "holding back of funds for schemes such as MNREGA", Mr. O'Brien said.
He said a consultation with other Opposition parties will be held soon before the session begins.
LIC and SBI's exposure to the Adani group were raised by various opposition parties in the first leg of Parliament's Budget Session which saw multiple disruptions.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
