  "account": "Opposition MPs staged a protest in the Parliament House complex on Thursday, August 6, 2026, over the alleged theft of donations at the Ram temple in Ayodhya and police actions against student protesters. Amidst the rain, the MPs, carrying umbrellas and banners, gathered in front of the Makar Dwar of Parliament, shouting slogans against the government, including \"chhanda chor, gaddi chor,\" and demanding answers from Home Minister Amit Shah. The protesters set up a donation box at the spot, symbolizing the theft of donations, and lined up around it, raising their voices against the government. Most of the opposition MPs were from Congress and Samajwadi Party, with a large banner reading \"Amit Shah jawaab do\" and slogans against the Home Minister. Earlier, SP MPs held a separate protest, demanding accountability for the alleged theft of donations from the Ram temple. The INDIA bloc parties vowed to corner the government on these issues, promising to raise questions during floor sessions. However, both Houses of Parliament remain deadlocked, with legislative business proceeding amid continuous disruptions.",
