Rajya Sabha Adjourned Amid NEET Protest Uproar
The Rajya Sabha, which is like a big meeting of important people who make laws in India, had to stop its work several times on July 27.
This happened because some members, mostly from the Opposition parties, were very upset and loud.
They wanted to talk about how the police treated students who were protesting because they thought a big exam called NEET had some questions leaked before the test.
The police were accused of being too harsh.
The leader of the meeting, called the Deputy Chairman, asked everyone to calm down so they could talk about an important law, but the noise continued, so he had to stop the meeting until later in the afternoon.
Rajya Sabha adjourned multiple times on July 27 amid uproar over police action against NEET protesters.
Opposition parties led by Congress sought to raise the issue of alleged police brutality against students.
Deputy Chairman Harivansh appealed to protesting members to allow discussion on the Prevention of Insults to National Honour (Amendment) Bill, 2026.
The Rajya Sabha has been disrupted since the beginning of the Monsoon session on July 20 over the NEET paper leak issue.
The Prevention of Insults to National Honour (Amendment) Bill, 2026 seeks to make desecration of national symbols a criminal offence.
