New Delhi: The Winter Session of Parliament began on a stormy note, with both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha witnessing disruptions and adjournments on the opening day. Prime Minister Narendra Modi took aim at the opposition, accusing them of stalling progress by prioritizing politics over constructive dialogue.
The session, which runs until December 20, has a packed agenda with 16 critical bills slated for discussion. Key legislation includes electoral reforms and amendments to the criminal justice system, alongside the Jammu and Kashmir Reservation and Reorganisation Bills. These bills aim to enhance representation for marginalized communities in the region.
Protests from opposition members centered on contentious legislative measures and pressing national issues, sparking intense debates in both Houses. Despite the disruptions, the government emphasized its commitment to advancing meaningful reforms during the session.
As the session progresses, significant debates and decisions are expected to shape the nation’s legislative landscape in the coming months.
