Congress Questions Delay in Parliament Prorogation Over Delimitation Bill Majority
The Congress has questioned the 27-day delay in proroguing Parliament's Monsoon session after its adjournment on August 13, suggesting the government may be attempting to secure a two-thirds majority to pass Constitution amendment bills related to delimitation. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh alleged the government lacks the necessary numbers and is trying to break up parties to achieve this. The bill was previously defeated in April, falling short of the required two-thirds majority in the Lok Sabha.
