Amid heavy protests continuing consecutively on the 5th day of the Parliament Monsoon Session, Rajya Sabha was adjourned on Friday as well. The adjournment was done due to the heavy protest done by senior opposition leaders, which included LoP in Rajya Sabha Mallika Arjun Kharge, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul, and other senior leaders from the INDIA bloc. 

On Friday, several opposition parliamentarians in the Rajya Sabha moved Suspension of Business notices on Thursday, urging a discussion on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter lists in Bihar during the ongoing Monsoon Session of Parliament.

As reported by ANI, Congress Rajya Sabha MP Akhilesh Prasad Singh submitted a notice in the upper house of the Parliament demanding a detailed discussion on the SIR process in Bihar. The discussion highlights concerns over the voter list revision. Similarly, Congress MP Ranjeet Ranjan also gave a notice under Rule 267, pressing for an immediate dialogue on the same issue.
