  "summary": "On August 11, 2026, Prime Minister Narendra Modi was greeted by tricolour-waving MPs at the ruling coalition's weekly parliamentary party meeting, known as the \"Mangal Milan.\" The ministers and MPs, including BJP president Nitin Nabin and Union ministers Amit Shah, Nirmala Sitharaman, and Nitin Gadkari, waved the national flag and raised slogans of \"Vande Mataram\" and \"Bharat Mata Ki Jai.\" The meeting, held at the GMC Balayogi Auditorium in the Parliament Library, saw the attendance of ministers from various NDA parties, such as H.D. Kumaraswamy, Kinjarapu Ram Mohan Naidu, Ramdas Bandu Athawale, Praful Patel, Upendra Kushwaha, and Satabdi Roy. The Monsoon Session of Parliament, which began on July 20, is set to conclude on August 13 and has seen repeated adjournments, with limited business due to opposition protests over issues like the NEET paper leak and the Ram temple in Ayodhya.",
