Macron Announces France Will Recognise Palestinian Statehood; Israel In Total Shock
Parliament witnessed fresh chaos on July 22, 2025, with both Houses adjourned till noon amid Opposition uproar over three flashpoint issues, the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar, the deadly Pahalgam terror attack, and the sudden resignation of Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar. In Rajya Sabha, Deputy Chairman Harivansh presided as Opposition leaders pushed 12 notices under Rule 267, one of which demanded a debate on Dhankhar's surprise resignation citing health reasons. In the Lok Sabha, Speaker Om Birla adjourned the House shortly after it convened, as MPs demanded a discussion on security lapses and foreign policy following Operation Sindoor. Outside Parliament, Rahul Gandhi, Akhilesh Yadav and other Opposition leaders staged a high-voltage protest at Makar Dwar against the SIR exercise in Bihar, calling it unconstitutional and politically motivated.#parliamentlive #biharsir #dhankharresigns #pahalgamattack #rahulgandhi #akhileshyadav #rajyasabha #loksabha #operationsindoor #electionrow #toi #toibharat #bharat #trending #breakingnews #indianews

Bihar Draft Electoral Rolls To Be Out Tomorrow; CEC Gyanesh Kumar Invites Electors To...
New Delhi: In a key step ahead of the 2025 Bihar Assembly elections, the Chief Election Commissioner of India, Gyanesh Kumar, announced that the draft electoral rolls for all 243 constituencies will be published on Friday, August 1, 2025. The rolls will be available online on the official website and shared in both digital and physical formats with recognised political parties across Bihar's 38 districts. Citizens and political parties can file claims or objections, including adding missing eligible voters, removing ineligible names, or correcting entries, from August 1 to September 1 through the 243 Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) and District Election Officers (DEOs). Gyanesh Kumar said, "As per Para 7(4) of SIR orders (Page 3), the draft electoral rolls of Bihar are being published tomorrow, ie, Friday, the 1 Aug 2025. Physical as well as digital copies will also be given to all recognised political parties in Bihar in all 38 Districts by all the 38 District Election Officers (DEOs) of Bihar. The Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of Bihar and 243 Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) will also be inviting any elector of that Assembly Constituency or any Recognised Political party in Bihar to come forward and give claims and objections from 1 Aug to 1 Sep 2025 for adding names of any missing eligible elector, removing names of any ineligible elector or correction of any entry in the draft electoral rolls." The SIR process is being conducted in three distinct phases, as outlined by the Election Commission. The first phase involved counting from June 24 to July 25, 2025. Following this, the draft voter list will be published on August 1. During the second phase, from August 1 to September 1, voters and political parties can submit claims or objections to correct any errors in the draft list. In the third phase, lasting until September 25, all Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) will review and resolve these claims and objections. The primary goals of the SIR process include ensuring full participation from voters and political parties, guaranteeing that no eligible voter in Bihar is left off the list, including temporary migrants, urban residents, and young voters, and maintaining continuous communication with voters and political parties. The process also involves the active participation of election staff and volunteers, addressing issues raised during the counting phase, and eliminating errors in the draft voter list during the claim period. However, opposition parties have raised concerns about the SIR process. They argue that due to insufficient documentation requirements, many eligible voters could be disenfranchised. They also allege that the ruling BJP-JDU alliance might influence local election officers to their advantage. This issue has sparked daily debates and protests in both houses of Parliament during the monsoon session.

Expedite Outer Regional Ring Railway line, Chamala asks in Lok Sabha
Bhuvanagiri MP Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy has appealed to the Lok Sabha Speaker and Union Railway Minister to expedite the implementation of India's first Outer Regional Ring Railway Line (ORRRL) project in Hyderabad. Raising the matter under Section 377 in Parliament, the MP stressed on the national and strategic importance of the project, highlighting its alignment with the Prime Minister's vision of Vikshit Bharat-2047. The ambitious railway corridor, estimated at a cost of ₹12,000 crore, is designed to encircle the Hyderabad Metropolitan Region, covering eight districts and 14 mandals across Telangana. The line will run parallel to the proposed Regional Ring Road (RRR) and is expected to include 6 rail-over-rail (ROR) bridges. 'This project will act as a catalyst for economic growth, urbanisation, and industrial expansion,' he said, adding that the railway ring will help unlock new growth corridors, catalyse urbanisation of nearly 60% of the state, and enable job creation on a large scale.
