Jaitley's counterpart in the Lok Sabha, Sushma Swaraj, who was pleased with BJP and Opposition's performance in the Monsoon session, remarked, “But for the government, it was a refer and defer session."
Scoffing at the reports of a 'deal' between the BJP and the government over the controversial Nuclear Liability Bill, Swaraj said, “I strictly object to the use of the term deal. A deal has to be for the entire session and not a particular bill...it is a baseless allegation that it was a deal."
