Budget Session Live Updates: The second half of Parliament's Budget session had a turbulent start on Monday, with Opposition MPs raising slogans as External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar briefed the Rajya Sabha over the Middle East war. The Lok Sabha is scheduled to take up an opposition-sponsored resolution seeking the removal of Speaker Om Birla. The motion, backed by several opposition parties accusing Birla of acting in a "partisan" manner, is expected to trigger a sharp face-off with the ruling BJP, which has issued a whip to ensure MPs' presence in the House. Opposition parties are also expected to raise issues including electoral roll revisions in West Bengal. Stay tuned to indiatoday.in for all the latest updates. |
