    Kiren Rijiju on smooth functioning of Parliament: 'It's essential for the country'

    Union Minister Kiren Rijiju emphasised the importance of a smoothly functioning Parliament for the nation. In response to the ongoing disruptions, he pointed out that when the proceedings of the House are interrupted, it causes the most harm to the country and opposition members themselves. "We can pass bills without debate due to our majority, but we believe that's not the right approach," Rijiju stated.

    He also questioned whether, in cases where a court order from another country affects an Indian, Parliament would continuously discuss such matters. According to Rijiju, many Opposition members are beginning to realise that disrupting the House is not beneficial for either the country or the opposition. He further noted that there is increasing pressure on Congress leadership, acknowledging that the public does not want Parliament to be halted by protests and disruptions. Rijiju expressed optimism about the smooth functioning of Parliament, stating that discussions on the Constitution will take place on December 13 and 14 in the Lok Sabha, and on December 16 and 17 in the Rajya Sabha.
