Opposition disrupts Parliament over student protests
The opposition in India's Parliament is protesting and causing disruptions to demand a statement from the Home Minister about police actions during student protests.
They want accountability for the police's use of force.
The government, however, is focused on passing a new bill to prevent paper leaks in exams.
The opposition says the bill doesn't address their concerns, while the government says it does.
The Supreme Court will hear about the police actions soon.
Both sides are arguing, and the Parliament has been adjourned multiple times because of the disruptions.
Opposition MPs disrupted Parliament on 27th July 2026 demanding a statement from Home Minister Amit Shah on alleged police excesses during student protests.
The government is focused on passing the Anti-Paper Leak Bill, which introduces stricter laws against exam fraud and systemic reforms.
Parliament was adjourned multiple times due to opposition disruptions, preventing legislative progress.
The Supreme Court will hear the matter regarding police actions on 28th July 2026.
Opposition claims disruptions are to highlight student grievances, while the government sees them as political tactics to obstruct reforms.
