Hope GST Bill to be passed by consensus: Jaitley

The first part of the Budget session has drawn to a close, and so far it seems to be shaping up into one of the more productive sessions we have seen in recent times.

The government has managed to push through quite a few pieces of key legislations like the Insurance Bill, the Coal Bill and the MMDR Bill.

A triumphant Finance Minister says that some pending legislation like the Black Money Bill have been tabled, and will be taken up once the session resumes after a month-long recess.

Speaking to CNBC-TV18's Nayantara Rai, the Finance Minister also says that a council of ministers will take a view on the Land Bill and that a decision on proroguing the session has not been taken yet.
