Background
Parliament Monsoon Session HIGHLIGHTS: The final week of the Monsoon session is here and after continuous protests by the opposition over the Pegasus snoopgate row, Congress and other parties are likely to support the centre for passing the OBC Bill today.
The crucial bill will restore the state's power to identify Other Backward Classes (OBC). This will require a constitutional amendment that needs the support of two-thirds majority of lawmakers who are present during the proceedings, with at least 50% in attendance, making the Opposition's support crucial.
Congress MP Manish Tewari has suggested that the Opposition consider bringing a vote of a no-confidence motion against the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government as the stalemate in Parliament continues over the issues including farmers' agitation, Pegasus issue and COVID-19 mismanagement.
