Prime Minister Narendra Modi, along with top Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders including Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, and BJP National President JP Nadda, arrived at the Parliament Library Building on Tuesday to attend a crucial National Democratic Alliance (NDA) Parliamentary Party meeting.

Also present at the gathering were Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju, Union Minister Prahlad Joshi, and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut, among other key leaders.

The meeting includes members from both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, and comes at a time when Parliamentary proceedings have faced repeated disruptions over the Opposition’s demand for a discussion on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. The Opposition is also pushing for the withdrawal of the SIR exercise.

Due to the continued protests by opposition MPs on Monday, the Lok Sabha was unable to take up discussions on two key legislations:

Meanwhile, the INDIA bloc has scheduled its own meeting on Tuesday morning at the office of the Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha, also located in the Parliament Library Building. Following the meeting, alliance MPs will stage a protest at 10:30 am in front of Makar Dwar in Parliament. The demonstration will be held under the slogan: “Our vote, our right, our fight.”

Earlier today, the Lok Sabha proceedings began with obituary references to the passing of former MPs Tilakdhari Prasad Singh, Ram Rati Bind, and Shibu Soren.

According to the List of Business released by the Lok Sabha Secretariat, Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya is scheduled to move amendments to the National Anti-Doping Act, 2022, and also introduce the National Sports Governance Bill, 2025 in the House for consideration and passage.
