Monsoon Session Begins with Opposition Protests Over Exam Leak and Temple Donations

By TrendingWire Newsroom

The first day of Parliament's monsoon session was disrupted by opposition protests on Monday. Lawmakers from various parties raised concerns over the NEET paper leak and alleged theft of donations at a Ram temple. The Lok Sabha faced repeated adjournments as MPs from the Congress, Samajwadi Party, and Trinamool Congress entered the Well of the House, demanding discussions. The DMK raised the Mekedatu water dispute but skipped a meeting called by the Congress. In the Lok Sabha, a bill to increase the number of Supreme Court judges was introduced. The changed seating arrangement for rebel Trinamool Congress MPs also drew attention. Both houses saw limited productivity as the opposition's protests led to early adjournments. The government said it was ready for discussion, but the opposition insisted on immediate debate on the issues. The monsoon session is scheduled to continue for several weeks, with key legislative business pending.
