Kiren Rijiju Meets Rahul Gandhi Amid Parliament Deadlock Over Key Bills and ProtestsPreviousNext

Parliament remains deadlocked during the Monsoon Session as Opposition protests continue to disrupt proceedings, preventing completion of the Question Hour. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju met Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and other Congress leaders to discuss key bills, including the Delimitation and FCRA Bills, seeking cooperation to end the stalemate. The Opposition insists that Union Home Minister Amit Shah address Parliament regarding police actions against protesters and alleged donation irregularities before legislative business resumes. Talks aim to restore normal functioning amid ongoing political tensions.
