Parliament Monsoon Session Prorogation Delay Raises Questions on Delimitation Bill
Ten days after Parliament's Monsoon session was adjourned sine die on August 13, the formal prorogation has not occurred, prompting Congress to question if the delay aims to secure a two-thirds majority for a delimitation-linked Constitutional Amendment Bill. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh highlighted that such delays are unusual compared to past sessions. Meanwhile, speculation arises that the government may seek to pass key legislation, including a women's reservation bill, without convening a new session. Opposition parties express concerns about delimitation's impact on representation.
