The chaotic and disrupted Rajya Sabha was adjourned on Tuesday as well. During the Monsoon Session of the Parliament, several Congress MPs moved notices under Rule 267 in Rajya Sabha to discuss the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR). The Special Intensive Revision exercise is being carried out by the Election Commission (EC) in Bihar ahead of the assembly elections, while raising concerns over similar drives being planned in West Bengal and other states.
As reported by news agency ANI, Congress MPs Syed Naseer Hussain, Akhilesh Prasad Singh, Ranjeet Ranjan, Neeraj Dangi, Rajani Ashokrao Patil, Ashok Singh, and Jebi Mather collectively moved notices under Rule 267. The MPs on Tuesday also demanded the suspension of house business to discuss the SIR drive in Bihar.
It has also been reported by ANI that Congress MP Ranjeet Ranjan stated that the voter list revision in Bihar raises concerns regarding the "potential disenfranchisement of vulnerable sections of society," while calling for a discussion.
