Crucial meeting of ruling NDA Parliamentary Party to take place this morning.

A crucial meeting of National Democratic Alliance (NDA) Parliamentary Party will take place in New Delhi this morning. The meeting will be attended by NDA members from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The meeting comes amid a stalemate in Parliament over the opposition demand for discussion on Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. The opposition parties are demanding the withdrawal of SIR. The Lok Sabha could not take up the National Sports Governance Bill, 2025 and the National Anti-Doping (Amendment) Bill, 2025 yesterday, for discussion amid opposition protests. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju said that following an all-party meeting, time had been allotted in the Business Advisory Committee meeting to discuss the National Sports Bill and the Anti-doping Bill. He urged members not to waste the time of the House and condemned their stance. Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaivya said that bills are important and urged opposition members to allow discussion. BJP MP Jagdambika Pal, who was in the Chair, also urged members to allow discussion to proceed. He said, since the monsoon session began, the House has not passed any bill. Mr Rijiju later said that the opposition has continued disrupting proceedings even as the third week of the monsoon session has begun.
