“In the meeting of INDIA bloc leaders in the presence of Rajya Sabha LOP Mallikarjun @kharge ji and Lok Sabha LOP Sh. @RahulGandhi ji, the opposition has decided to press for the PM’s presence in the House to answer questions on pressing issues,” Venugopal said.
Among the key issues the Opposition seeks to raise Venugopal said are “Pahalgam terror attack, Operation Sindoor and Donald Trump’s statements on the ceasefire, Bihar SIR process, delimitation, growing atrocities against dalits, adivasis, backward classes and women, AI 171 plane crash and Manipur civil war”.
“These are people’s issues and must be given utmost priority,” said KC Venugopal in his post.
The monsoon session of parliament commenced yesterday but was adjourned after opposition parties disrupted proceedings, demanding a discussion on Operation Sindoor.
