Parliament Adjourned Amid Opposition Protests Over NEET Paper Leak
The Parliament in India had to stop its meetings for the second day in a row because the Opposition parties were protesting.
They want to talk about a big problem with a school exam called NEET, where some say the exam papers were leaked.
They also want to discuss how the police treated people who were protesting.
The government, however, wants to stick to its planned work.
Both the main meeting places in Parliament, the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha, had to stop their meetings many times before finally calling it off for the day.
They will meet again the next day.
The Opposition is very upset and says the government is not being fair.
They even met with the Speaker of the Lok Sabha to ask for a discussion, but the government did not agree.
Outside, some other Opposition members were protesting too.
Even though there were protests, the government still had some important bills to talk about, but they couldn't because of all the interruptions.
Parliament adjourned for the second consecutive day due to Opposition protests.
Opposition demands discussion on NEET paper leak and police crackdown on protests.
Government insists on sticking to the scheduled legislative agenda.
Key bills include the Prevention of Insults to National Honour (Amendment) Bill, 2026, and the Supreme Court (Number of Judges) Amendment Bill, 2026.
