Parliament Session Delay Raises Questions Over Delimitation Bill Timing
The monsoon session of India's Parliament was adjourned sine die on August 13 but has not been formally prorogued, leaving Parliament in a suspended state beyond usual norms. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge criticized the delay, urging an all-party meeting on the proposed delimitation bill, which requires a constitutional amendment and has faced opposition. The government, defended by Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju, states there is no constitutional requirement to prorogue within a set time and suggests the upcoming session may continue the monsoon session. Speculation surrounds a possible special session to pass the bill and related legislation on women's reservation.
