Monsoon Session of Parliament began on Monday, July 21, on a rocky note. Ruckus was seen in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. Congress whip Manickam Tagore on Monday gave an adjournment motion notice in the Lok Sabha, while Congress Rajya Sabha MP Randeep Surjewala gave a suspension of business notice under rule 267 to discuss the Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor in the Rajya Sabha.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi briefed media persons on Monday, just before the commencement of the first day of the Monsoon Parliament session.

The Centre on Sunday signalled its willingness to discuss Operation Sindoor in Parliament and indicated that it might also respond to US President Donald Trump’s claim of mediating a ceasefire between India and Pakistan as the Opposition sharpened its demands during an all-party meeting ahead of the monsoon session.
