What happened
Parliament remained paralysed for a second consecutive day during the Monsoon Session as Opposition MPs protested over alleged NEET paper leak issues, police action against students in Delhi, and a separate allegation relating to Ram temple donation theft. Both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha were adjourned repeatedly.
The Lok Sabha was adjourned twice in the morning, at 11 a.m. and again at noon, before being adjourned for the day at 2 p.m.. The Rajya Sabha also saw repeated interruptions and adjournments after protest slogans and commotion resumed.
Background and earlier position
The NEET-UG controversy has already become a major governance issue because allegations of paper leaks undermine trust in a national-level medical entrance examination. Parliament disruption shows that the controversy has moved beyond the examination arena and entered the core space of legislative accountability.
A delegation of Opposition MPs from both Houses, led by Rahul Gandhi, met Speaker Om Birla and demanded a detailed discussion on alleged brutality against students and on the government's response to the examination crisis.
