Breaking News: Monsoon Session Begins with High Stakes and Heavy Expectations | ABP NEWS
India’s Monsoon Session of Parliament has begun with high anticipation and potential for intense political confrontation. Key issues—ranging from Operation Sindoor, the Indo-Pak ceasefire, voter list irregularities in Bihar, and US President Donald Trump’s ceasefire claims—are likely to spark heated debates in both houses. In a pre-session address, Prime Minister Narendra Modi described this Monsoon Session as a “Festival of Victory,” citing India’s success in defense operations like Operation Sindoorand milestones like the Indian tricolor flying on the International Space Station. He emphasized unity, military pride, and progress in areas like healthcare, inflation control, and digital payments. However, opposition parties, led by the Congress, have geared up to target the government on rising crime, law and order issues, and the revision of the Bihar voter list ahead of the assembly elections. Rahul Gandhi has raised concerns over electoral transparency, previously blaming EVMs and now voter rolls. PM Modi urged all MPs to engage in constructive debate, prioritizing national interest over party lines. The nation, he said, is watching. The session marks the final legislative sitting before Bihar’s elections and could be pivotal for shaping political narratives leading into 2025.
