Amit Shah Expected to Address Parliament Amid Ongoing Opposition Criticism

Parliamentary Discussions on the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill

Government sources indicate that Home Minister Amit Shah is anticipated to speak in Parliament during the discussions and voting on the 'Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2026.' This comes as the opposition criticizes his absence from the House. In an effort to resolve the ongoing deadlock in Parliament, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju met with opposition leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday, seeking Congress's cooperation to ensure smooth proceedings for the remainder of the monsoon session.

Potential Special Session After Independence Day

There are speculations in political circles that a special session of Parliament may be convened after Independence Day to reintroduce the delimitation bill and the Nari Shakti Vandan (Amendment) Bill, which were not passed in the previous session. However, government sources have stated that there are currently no plans to take such action. It remains unclear whether the delimitation bill will be presented before the conclusion of the monsoon session on August 13.

Ongoing Opposition Concerns

During the presentation of the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2026, it is likely that Home Minister Amit Shah will address the House. The opposition has been consistently questioning Shah's absence during parliamentary proceedings. Meanwhile, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju met with Rahul Gandhi in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday. Sources revealed that various issues related to breaking the deadlock in parliamentary proceedings were discussed during their meeting.

Continued Stalemate in Monsoon Session

This meeting occurred amidst a persistent deadlock in the monsoon session of Parliament, particularly concerning issues like the alleged theft of donations from the Ram Temple in Ayodhya and police actions against students. Since the start of the monsoon session, there has not been a single day of question hour in the Lok Sabha. Amidst the chaos, five bills have been passed without discussion. Initially, opposition parties protested over the NEET question paper leak and the Ram Temple donation theft.
