Senior ministers Arun Jaitley, Ananth Kumar and Venkaiah Naidu were present at the meeting. 


Parliament witnessed continued ruckus on the first two days of the winter session with the opposition doggedly pursuing with the issue demanding in both Houses a threadbare discussion on the Government's decision to scrap Rs. 1000 and Rs. 500 notes.

On Thursday, the Rajya Sabha witnessed multiple adjournments while the Lok Sabha was adjourned till Friday as the situation did not allow the normal proceedings to go on.
