Congress' Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, NCP's Supriya Sule, and JDU's Sanjay Jha are expected to serve on the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) to review the Constitution (129th) Amendment Bill, which seeks to amend the Constitution to allow for simultaneous Lok Sabha and assembly elections.

Former Union Ministers PP Chaudhary, Anurag Thakur, and Parshottambhai Rupala are among the BJP's candidates. It is believed that Chaudhary would head the panel.

The group is also expected to include BJP MPs Anil Baluni, CM Ramesh, and Sambit Patra.


The JPC generally has 31 members, and Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla is expected to decide the committee's membership after speaking with floor leaders from all parties.

Manish Tewari, Randeep Surjewala, and Sukhdeo Bhagat are anticipated to join Priyanka from the Congress.

Supriya Sule, the NCP (SCP) floor leader, and Sanjay Jha, the JDU national president, are both slated to serve on the committee.
