Both Houses of Parliament adjourned on the first day due to disruption from the Opposition parties

Monsoon Session of Parliament begins

  • Those who created ruckus on the first day of Parliament should be suspended for the entire duration of the session so that Parliament can function smoothly.
  • Such members will only be disciplined if they are punished in the same way as school children are punished for making chaos in the classroom. The expenses of the House for the day should be recovered from these members.

What is the Pegasus case?

‘The Guardian’ and the ‘Washington Post’ have reported that several Indian journalists, Union Ministers, Supreme Court Judges, and administrative officers were secretly spied upon by tapping their phones. The reports claimed that spying was carried out using Israeli spyware Pegasus, developed by an Israeli firm.

New Delhi – The Monsoon Session of the Parliament began on a bitter note with the Opposition creating an uproar on various topics such as inflation, farmers’ protests, Pegasus, etc. As the disruptions continued despite repeated pleas by the Chair to maintain decorum, both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were adjourned for the day. This Session will run until 13th August, during which 31 bills can be tabled, including two financial bills.

  1. The swearing-in of the new members took place after the Lok Sabha resumed its proceedings in the morning. After this, as soon as PM Narendra Modi stood up to introduce the new Ministers, the Opposition started making chaos. Amid the Opposition’s mayhem, Prime Minister Modi introduced his new Ministers.
  2. The proceedings of Lok Sabha were then adjourned as the Opposition parties created more ruckus while IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw was responding to the Pegasus issue.

Report on Pegasus is incorrect – Central Government

IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said, ‘It cannot be a coincidence that such press reports have appeared a day before the monsoon session of Parliament. Those reports had no factual basis and were categorically denied by all parties, including the Supreme Court. The report itself does not state emphatically that the data has been hacked through phone tapping. Let us examine what NSO, the company which owns the technology, has said. It said: NSO Group believes that claims that you have been provided with, are based on a misleading interpretation of leaked data from basic information. No proof supporting the claims has been submitted whatsoever. Any form of illegal surveillance is not possible with the checks and balances in our laws and our robust institutions’.
