Parliament Budget Session 2.0 LIVE Updates: No-Trust Motion Against Speaker Om Birla; Jaishankar To Brief On Iran War

Published by Webster

The second half of the Budget session of Parliament resumes today and is expected to begin on a stormy note. The Lok Sabha is set to take up an opposition-backed motion seeking the removal of Speaker Om Birla, while the escalating conflict involving Iran, Israel and the United States is also likely to dominate proceedings. The Budget session will continue until April 2. What’s on agenda? No-trust motion against Om Birla: A motion against Om Birla, signed by 118 Opposition MPs, accuses him of acting in a “blatantly partisan” manner while conducting proceedings in the House. Following the notice, Birla recused himself from presiding over the Lok Sabha and is expected to return to the chair only after the matter is decided. Despite the political heat, the ruling National Democratic Alliance holds a comfortable majority, making it unlikely that the motion will succeed. PM Narendra Modi has publicly backed Birla, saying the Speaker has upheld the principles of the Constitution and parliamentary democracy.

Winter Session of Parliament Debate News Live Updates, Day 7: Day 7 of Parliament’s Winter Session opens with a long-awaited debate that has dominated political discussions for days. The Lok Sabha will finally take up a full-scale discussion on electoral reforms, with a special focus on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of India’s voter rolls. After repeated demands and rounds of negotiation, the government and the Opposition reached an agreement last week to bring the subject to the House. What to expect?

Their protests have taken place both inside and outside Parliament, with senior leaders such as Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi holding posters and banners reading “Stop SIR – Stop Vote Chori”.  They argue that the SIR, presented as a clean-up of bogus or outdated entries, has been misused, especially during its rollout in Bihar, to target marginalised communities that traditionally support Opposition parties. The government has denied these allegations, insisting that the …

Parliament Winter Session Live Updates: Stormy Start Likely As SIR, Herald Case Face-Off Looms; 14 Bills On Agenda

Published by Webster

Parliament Winter Session Live Updates, 1st December: The Winter Session of Parliament begins today. Questions over the revision of voter lists, concerns about the death of an election official in Bengal, and rising anxiety after the recent Delhi blast are expected to dominate the early days of the session.  Opposition push for debate on SIR: A major point of contention is the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Opposition parties, particularly the Trinamool Congress, have demanded a detailed discussion on the process. They argue that the revision is being carried out without proper planning and has placed undue pressure on Election Commission staff, especially after the death of an official in Bengal. Leaders from 36 parties raised the issue during the all-party meeting and insisted that Parliament must address the concerns urgently. Delhi blast: Alongside the electoral roll controversy, Opposition parties also want a debate on the 10 November Delhi blast and the wider questions of national security that have followed. The incident has added to the already charged political climate, with several …

The constitutional amendment bills for holding Lok Sabha and assembly elections simultaneously were introduced in the Parliament on Tuesday, with the opposition leaders heavily criticising the bill. As many as 198 members voted against the constitutional amendment bills in the Parliament. (PTI) After the ‘Constitution (One Hundred and Twenty-Ninth Amendment) Bill, 2024’ and ‘The Union Territories Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2024’ was formally introduced, the bill was sent to a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) for a detailed discussion. As 269 MPs votes in favour of the bill, 198 members pushed against it. Moving in the Parliament premises, Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi told reporters that the ‘One Nation, One Election’ bill is “anti-constitutional”, adding that “it is against the federalism of our nation. We are opposing the Bill”. Priyanka’s party colleague Shashi Tharoor said that other than the opposition from the parties, there is also a valid question of depriving people of their mandate. “They have the right to vote. The Constitution begins with the words ‘we the people’. This is about the people of India. They …
