INDIA bloc stages fresh Parliament protest demanding Amit Shah response
Some political parties in India, called the INDIA bloc, held a big protest at the Parliament building in New Delhi.
They want the Home Minister, Amit Shah, to come and answer questions in Parliament.
The questions are about money people donated to help build the Ram Mandir temple in Ayodhya.
The opposition thinks the money may not have been handled properly.
They want a fair, transparent investigation into where the donations went.
The protest also talked about students who protested on July 20 about exam problems like paper leaks.
The opposition says the police were too rough with those students and even used pellet guns.
They say the students were peaceful and just wanted fair exams.
The opposition believes Parliament is the right place for the government to explain all of this.
