New Delhi, Jul 20 (IBNS) A day before parliament's monsoon session begins, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to meet senior NDA constituents to present a united front in Parliament to face the opposition fireworks on Vyapam scam and the Lalit Modi controversy.

Modi's move is also an effort to battle it out on crucial legislations that the government is determined to push through in the face of fierce opposition.

. At stake are several crucial legislations -- including the Goods and Services Tax bill and the land bill -- which have to be passed by the Upper House, Rajya Sabha, where the ruling NDA lacks majority.

On Sunday, the BJP held  a series of meetings  to finalise strategy to counter the expected Congress offensive on Vyapam scam and the Lalit Modi controversy-the two burning issues the main opposition party has made their weapon.
