Meanwhile, earlier today, Congress and other parties of the INDIA bloc identified eight key issues to be raised during the monsoon session of Parliament. These include the Pahalgam terror attack and the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls in Bihar. Opposition members had given adjournment notices, which were not accepted. Opposition parties had been raising slogans in the Lok Sabha in support of their demands in the House. The Lok Sabha was first adjourned until 12:00 p.m. and then until 2:00 p.m. “… The Defence Minister is allowed to speak in the House, but Opposition members, including me, who is the LoP, are not allowed to speak…This is a new approach… The convention states that if people from the government side can speak, then we should also be given space to speak,” Rahul Gandhi told reporters. Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra referred to Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju’s remarks that the government is ready for discussion on Operation Sindoor.”If they (the government) are ready for discussion, they should let the Leader of the Opposition speak. He stood up to speak, so he should be allowed to speak,” she said. (ANI) This report is auto-generated from ANI news service. ThePrint holds no responsibility for its content.
