The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- The Union government will push four bills in Parliament on Monday, including one raising the sanctioned strength of Supreme Court judges to 37, amendments for the MSME sector, a statutory framework for the Indian Statistical Institute, and a bill modernising laws on bankers' books for digital banking.
- The move comes with nine working days left in the Monsoon Session, which ends August 13.
- The Opposition plans to continue protesting, demanding Home Minister Amit Shah's statement on violence against students in Delhi and raising allegations of Ram Mandir donation embezzlement, for which an FIR has been registered against eight people.
- Parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju rejected claims the government was steamrolling bills, saying repeated disruptions had left little scope for debate.
What to watch next
- Whether the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill is taken up for passage, and whether it is referred to a parliamentary committee as Derek O'Brien has demanded.
- Whether the Opposition's Monday morning strategy meeting leads to continued disruptions or any compromise allowing debate on Amit Shah's statement.
- Whether the four bills listed for Monday pass amid protests, following the pattern of bills cleared in minutes last week.
