Monday’s all-party meeting failed to break the deadlock between the government and the opposition parties in Parliament
over allowing foreign direct investment (FDI) in supermarkets, sparking concern that little legislative business will be
accomplished in the winter session.Although back-room negotiations seem to have won over ally Dravida Munnetra
Kazhagam (DMK) and friendly parties that support it from outside—Samajwadi Party (SP) and Bahujan Samaj Party
((BSP)—not to insist on a vote on the FDI issue, the SP and the BSP are at loggerheads over a Bill on reservations for
scheduled castes and tribes for promotions in government jobs.
