NDA, Opposition protest at Parliament on Monsoon Session's last day

NDA, Opposition protest at Parliament on Monsoon Session's last day

Important people called lawmakers meet in a big building called Parliament to make rules for India.

They meet during special times called sessions.

One of these sessions, the Monsoon Session, ended on Thursday.

Two groups of lawmakers, the NDA and the Opposition, do not agree with each other.

On the last day, both groups held protests outside Parliament at a gate called Makar Dwar.

The Opposition wanted the government to explain who ordered police to fire pellet guns at student marchers.

They also asked questions about money donated at a famous temple in Ayodhya.

The NDA instead asked Congress leader Rahul Gandhi about police action during a protest in Jharkhand.

The Home Minister said he was ready to answer every question, but the two sides still could not talk together.

So the session ended with both groups still upset with each other.
