BJP wants Governor to make govt. deport ‘illegal' Pakistani nationals
In a memorandum submitted to the Governor at the Raj Bhavan on Tuesday, the party leaders including Rajya Sabha MP K Laxman, vice-presidents Ch. Ramachandra Reddy, N.V.S.S. Prabhakar, E. Lakshmi Narayana and others said the entire country has been shocked by the recent terrorist attack in the Pahalgam region of Jammu & Kashmir, planned and executed on the directions of ISI, the Inter Services Intelligence, of Pakistan and the Pakistani Army.
Hence, it is time to promptly identify all Pakistani nationals residing in various parts of the State without valid documents. All such individuals must be listed out without delay, and necessary legal action should be initiated immediately as it is a matter of grave national security. The local administration should act swiftly and decisively in accordance with the national directives to instil confidence in public and to address potential security concerns in a timely manner, added the memorandum.

Tharoor may succeed Dhankar as next V-P
Dubai: Shashi Tharoor as the next Vice-President of India? If so, does it mean a final parting for Tharoor and the party he currently represents, the Indian National Congress? If the buzz on Indian social media channels – and talk within the country's political circles – are anything to go by, Tharoor stands a good chance to be elevated to the role of 'second citizen'. The speculation comes as the incumbent VP of India, Jagdeep Dhankhar surprised all by announcing late last night (July 21) that he's stepping down from the role. A new candidate must be elected within the next 60 days, according to the rules, according to The Gulf News report. Tharoor's name is reportedly high on the list of possible names to replace Dhankhar, with a decision expected soon. Now, even before Dhankar made the surprise move – he's stepping down because of health issues – Tharoor had been mooted as a possible 'future' VP of the country. Now that future is likely to happen a lot sooner, if all the speculation is based on facts. Tharoor is currently a Member of Parliament from the Thiruvananthapuram constituency in Kerala, having won a narrow victory in the 2024 elections. But what he has been doing in recent weeks is what's fueling the fevered speculation about Tharoor as the next VP pick. Tharoor has been one of the more vocal proponents of India's stance on 'Operation Sindoor' in trips to the US and elsewhere. And that's brought him visibly closer to the BJP government - and sharing quite the rapport with the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Three more names are doing the rounds. Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. The JDU leader's name is doing the rounds as reportedly, the BJP is looking to name one of its own as Bihar's chief ministerial candidate ahead of the state polls. Union Health Minister and BJP President Jagat Prakash Nadda. A BJP veteran, he is known to be close to PM Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah. JDU MP and Deputy Chairman of the Rajya Sabha Harivansh Narayan Singh . As per the rules of the Constitution, Singh took over the duties of Rajya Sabha chairman (VP) starting today (July 22). He shares cordial relations with both Nitish Kumar and PM Modi, making him a prime contender.

Monsoon session: Parliament proceedings resume today, Op Sindoor debate time will be extended by 9 hours
Day 3 of the Monsoon Session of Parliament will commence on Wednesday, with proceedings in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha set to resume amid ongoing political tensions. A key development in the Upper House includes a scheduled meeting of the Rajya Sabha Business Advisory Committee (BAC) at 12:30 p.m. Time allotted for discussion on Operation Sindoor will be extended by nine hours. The debate is expected to remain a focal point as the House grapples with multiple contentious issues. The latest development comes a day after both Houses were adjourned for the entire day on Tuesday, following uproar and protests by Opposition parties. The disruptions were primarily triggered by two key issues: the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise of electoral rolls in Bihar and the unexpected resignation of Vice President and Rajya Sabha Chairman, Jagdeep Dhankhar. The second day of the Monsoon Session began with Opposition leaders staging a joint protest outside the 'Makar Dwar' of Parliament, accusing the Election Commission of conducting a 'biased and partisan' SIR exercise in poll-bound Bihar. Prominent leaders such as Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav were seen waving placards and posters alleging electoral manipulation. In the Rajya Sabha, the situation escalated as Opposition members demanded a discussion on the SIR drive and Dhankhar's resignation. When Deputy Chairman Harivansh rejected adjournment motions moved by several Opposition MPs, uproar ensued, with members storming the well of the House and raising slogans. The Rajya Sabha was first adjourned till noon, then 2 p.m., and finally for the day. The Lok Sabha saw a similar scenario with persistent disruptions. Opposition MPs demanded debates on both the SIR exercise and Operation Sindoor, but Speaker Om Birla denied permission. Protests grew louder, leading to repeated adjournments and eventually a complete halt to proceedings for the day.

Parl marred by ‘SIR' row, both Houses adjourned
New Delhi: The Lok Sabha was adjourned for the day on Tuesday due to protests by the opposition demanding a discussion on the ongoing voter roll revision in Bihar, even as the government accused them of practising "double standards" by asking for a debate on one hand and disrupting the House on the other. The Rajya Sabha was also adjourned for the day without transacting any business after uproar by Opposition members over several issues including a discussion on Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. Opposition members trooped to the Well of the Lok Sabha when the House reconvened at 2 pm after two earlier adjournments on the second day of the Monsoon session of Parliament demanding a discussion and roll back of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise initiated by the Election Commission in Bihar ahead of assembly polls scheduled for later this year. Dilip Saikia, who was on the chair, made repeated requests to opposition MPs to go back to their places and allow the House to function. As the protests continued, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju got up and condemned the opposition behaviour. The Upper House earlier saw two adjournments during the pre-lunch period, before it was finally adjourned within minutes of meeting at 2 PM. Soon after the House met, Deputy Chairman Harivansh announced the name of Shipping Minister Sarbananda Sonowal to move a motion for consideration of The Carriage of Goods by Sea Bill, 2025.
