Centre to push 4 bills amid House impasse; FCRA, SC judges and 2 other bills on agenda today
The legislative push comes with nine working days left in the Monsoon Session, as the Opposition plans to continue raising the Ram Mandir donation row.
The Union government is set to introduce four bills in Parliament on Monday, despite ongoing protests from the Congress-led Opposition. The bills include a measure to increase the number of Supreme Court judges from 31 to 37, amendments to the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector, a comprehensive statutory framework for the Indian Statistical Institute, and modernized laws governing evidence in bankers' books.
The government's push for legislation comes after the passage of two key bills last week, amid continued disruptions and Opposition demands. Opposition leaders accuse the government of rushing through bills without proper debate, while the government maintains that repeated disruptions have limited its ability to engage in substantive discussions.
The Opposition has also demanded that Union Home Minister Amit Shah make a statement in Parliament regarding violence against students in Delhi during a protest march on July 20. The government is expected to address this issue when Parliament reconvenes on Monday.
