Parliament Disrupted as Opposition Protests Bihar's Special Electoral Roll Revision

22 July, 2025

The second day of the Monsoon Session saw Parliament proceedings stalled as Opposition parties protested Bihar's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Leaders alleged the exercise, which excludes Aadhaar and PAN cards as valid proof for voter verification, is designed for large-scale disenfranchisement of marginalized communities ahead of state elections. Both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were adjourned amid sloganeering and demands for a debate, with the Opposition calling the move a threat to democratic rights.
