There are generally three sessions in a year:</p><ul><li>Budget session (February to May)</li><li>Monsoon session (July to September)</li><li>Winter session (November to December)</li></ul><p>Let’s take an example to understand this better. Assume there are 20 schools in your area, and the principal of each school is like an elected MP. They all meet thrice a year to discuss how to make schools better, help students learn, etc.&nbsp;</p><p>Similarly, the country’s leaders meet at the Parliament to discuss, decide, and make plans to benefit the citizens.</p><h5>What can we expect from the latest session?</h5><figure class="image"><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/newsahoot.appspot.com/Opposition_7a227dd86a.jpg" alt="Opposition.jpg"><figcaption>Opposition MPs outside the Parliament holding the Constitution of India.

They need to work together with other parties in the NDA.</p><p>There are more MPs from opposition parties in the Lok Sabha now than before. This means there will be more debates and discussions about important issues.</p><p>Talking about issues is always a good idea. It's the best way to make decisions that are good for everyone! A strong opposition is very important for democracy to do well.</p>

This is the first session after the formation of the new coalition government.
