Opposition MPs Seek Parliamentary Debate on Anti-Defection Law and Cauvery Dispute
Opposition MPs in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha have submitted notices to suspend regular parliamentary business to discuss key issues. Congress MP Manish Tewari seeks a comprehensive debate on reforming the Anti-Defection Law to curb opportunistic floor-crossing. Meanwhile, Rajya Sabha MP Praveen Chakravarthy has moved a motion to address a 'misleading reply' by the Ministry of Jal Shakti concerning the Cauvery water dispute and the Cauvery Water Regulation Committee's order for Karnataka to release water. These motions aim to prioritize electoral reforms and inter-state water concerns.
