THE BRIEF

The Congress party has issued a mandatory whip for all its MPs in both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, requiring their presence in Parliament starting Monday.

The move is a strategic push to challenge the government on the proposed FCRA Amendment Bill, with the Opposition demanding it be scrapped or referred to a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC).

3

Parliamentary proceedings have faced repeated adjournments throughout the session due to the Opposition's protests regarding the Home Minister's absence during critical debates.
