Monsoon Session likely to be ‘stormy' as Congress set to corner government
'An unprecedented attack had taken place in Pahalgam. We have been seeking a special session to have a discussion on this. We and the people of this country want to know where those terrorists are. Why has no action been taken yet? Who was responsible for the killing of 26 people? Why was no single security personnel present there? Why was the quick response team missing?...Why is Prime Minister Narendra Modi maintaining a mysterious silence on the US president Donald Trump on brokering a ceasefire during Operation Sindoor? He hasn't responded yet to his claim,' said Tiwari. The month-long Monsoon session of Parliament is set to begin on July 21. He further stated that the Congress would also corner the Government on the issue of 'electoral manipulations' in elections in states such as Maharashtra, Haryana, and now in Bihar. The Congress will also raise the issue of rising incidents of crimes against women and Scheduled Castes across the country, particularly in states such as Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Odisha. 'The Congress will raise the demand for the restoration of full statehood to Jammu and Kashmir, which has remained pending despite repeated assurances from the Government,' he said. On the question of the impeachment motion against Allahabad High Court justice Yashwant Verma, who is facing allegations of corruption charges after the discovery of burnt cash from his official residence in Delhi, the Congress leader didn't give any clear reply. He said that several other issues were also discussed in the meeting. Earlier in the day, the Congress president, Mallikarjun Kharge, met Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar and said the opposition wants a productive session. 'The Opposition wants a productive Rajya Sabha session from July 21st. For that to happen a number of strategic, political, foreign policy and socio-economic issues that are of great public concern need to be debated and discussed. Today, I called on the Hon'ble Chairman of the Rajya Sabha and had a fruitful conversation,' Kharge wrote on 'X'.

Nagpur: With the Supreme Court clearing the way for long-pending local body elections, Nagpur district collector Dr Vipin Itankar released the draft structure for 57 Zilla Parishad wards, marking the next step in the election process.
