During the present Monsoon Session of Parliament, the Lok Sabha will address Operation Sindoor, India’s military reaction to the Pahalgam terror incident, on Monday, July 28.
According to Union Minister Kiren Rijiju, the Business Advisory Committee decided to have a special meeting to review Operation Sindoor and the Pahalgam terror assault. According to him, it was decided that the discussion of Operation Sindoor would take place first, even though the opposition wanted to address a number of topics.
Prior to the start of the Parliament’s Monsoon Session, the Congress and other opposition parties had written to the administration to request a discussion on Operation Sindoor. These are the main themes of the upcoming Operation Sindoor discussion in Parliament.
On Monday, the Lok Sabha will spend 16 hours discussing Operation Sindoor, and on Tuesday, the Rajya Sabha will do the same. One important subject that the opposition has brought up repeatedly is US President Donald Trump’s frequent claims of mediating a truce between India and Pakistan. During the conversation, the opposition may ask the government to clarify these assertions. According to the news agency PTI, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh is expected to start the discussion in the Lok Sabha on Monday.
The discussion is anticipated to include Bharatiya Janata Party MPs Anurag Thakur and Nishikant Dubey, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar. The development hasn’t been formally confirmed, yet.
According to reports cited by PTI, the TDP has been given 30 minutes to talk, and MPs Lavu Sri Krishna Devarayalu and GM Harish Balayogi may take part in the conversation. Speakers will include Congressmen Gaurav Gogoi, Manish Tewari, Samajwadi Party chairman Akhilesh Yadav, NCP’s Supriya Sule, Trinamool Congress MP Abhishek Banerjee, and LoP Rahul Gandhi from the opposition benches. The Opposition INDIA bloc’s floor leaders will convene Monday at 10 a.m. to discuss the plan for the second week of the monsoon session.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s presence during the debate has been consistently desired by the opposition. Last week, Modi traveled to two different countries. With the first week of the Monsoon session filled with adjournments and deliberations, Rijiju asked the opposition “not to stall the House” before to the debate.
“If Parliament doesn’t work, it’s a loss for the nation,” Rijiju stated. It is anticipated that NDA leaders who took part in the multi-party delegations on Operation Sindoor, which visited many nations, will also engage in the discussion.
