Bihar Rolls Row: Parliament in Uproar, Govt Addresses US Tariff Concerns
The Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha witnessed repeated adjournments on Thursday, July 31, 2025, amidst vociferous protests by opposition parties over the recent revision of the Bihar electoral rolls. The disruptions effectively stalled parliamentary proceedings for much of the day.
Opposition members demanded an immediate discussion on the alleged irregularities and discrepancies in the revised rolls, accusing the government of partisan manipulation. Their calls for a detailed explanation and investigation fell on deaf ears.
Meanwhile, the government used the opportunity to address concerns regarding the recently imposed US tariffs on certain Indian goods. A statement was made outlining the government’s strategy to mitigate the impact on Indian businesses.
The ongoing standoff highlights the deep divisions within Parliament, with the opposition leveraging the Bihar electoral roll issue to corner the government. This incident underscores the increasing challenges faced by the government in navigating crucial legislative agendas amidst mounting political pressure. The impact of this disruption on pending legislation and the overall functioning of Parliament remains to be seen. The fallout could potentially affect crucial policy decisions and budgetary allocations in the coming weeks.
