Lok Sabha passed 12 bills, Rajya Sabha 14 in Monsoon session amid Opposition protests

NEW DELHI: Twelve bills were passed by the Lok Sabha and 14 by the Rajya Sabha during the month-long Monsoon session of Parliament, which has witnessed repeated disruptions, adjournments and walkouts.
Barring discussions on Operation Sindoor in both House, the session has seen little business ever since it began on July 21 due to repeated disruptions and adjournments initially due to opposition demand for discussion on Operation Sindoor and then over demands for a discussion on the Special Intensive Revision exercise in Bihar.
The Monsoon session is scheduled to end on Thursday.
The bills passed by the Lok Sabha are The Readjustment of Representation of Scheduled Tribes in Assembly Constituencies of the State of Goa Bill, 2025, The Merchant Shipping Bill, 2025, The Manipur Goods and Services Tax (Amendment) Bill, 2025, The Manipur Appropriation (No.2) Bill, 2025, The National Sports Governance Bill, 2025, and The National Anti-Doping (Amendment) Bill, 2025.
Other bills passed by the Lok Sabha are The Income-tax Bill, 2025, The Taxation Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2025, The Indian Ports Bill, 2025, The Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2025, The Indian Institutes of Management (Amendment) Bill, 2025 and The Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Bill, 2025.
The bills passed or returned by the Rajya Sabha are The Bills of Lading Bill, 2025, The Carriage of Goods by Sea Bill, 2025, The Coastal Shipping Bill, 2025, The Manipur Goods and Services Tax (Amendment) Bill, 2025, The Manipur Appropriation (No.2) Bill, 2025, The Merchant Shipping Bill, 2025 and The Readjustment of Representation of Scheduled Tribes in Assembly Constituencies of the State of Goa Bill, 2025 Other bills passed by the Rajya Sabha are The National Sports Governance Bill, 2025, The National Anti-Doping (Amendment) Bill, 2025, The Income-tax Bill, 2025, The Taxation Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2025, The Indian Ports Bill, 2025, The Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2025 and The Indian Institutes of Management (Amendment) Bill, 2025 "This time in Parliament, there was so much ruckus and opposition didn't cooperate.
Due to this obstinate behaviour, opposition missed participating in discussions on several important bills which were passed," a government functionary said.
In the Rajya Sabha, except for The Bills of Lading Bill, 2025, which was passed without any disruption on the first day of the Monsoon session, the other bills were passed after some discussion amid din or only after the Opposition parties staged a walk out, the functionary said.

Contradictions in Ministry data & Swachh survey over Chandigarh's waste segregation: MP Manish Tewari

Member of Parliament (MP) Manish Tewari on Thursday raised objections over the Union government's reply in Parliament regarding the city's waste management performance, pointing out glaring contradictions between the ministry's claims and the Swachh Survekshan 2024-25 results. Member of Parliament (MP) Manish Tewari highlighted that the ministry's data is at odds with the recent Swachh Survekshan rankings released on July 17. (HT File) In a written reply to Tewari's question on solid waste management, the Union ministry of housing and urban affairs said Chandigarh practices 100% door-to-door waste collection and 100% segregation at source across all its 35 wards. The ministry also maintained that the city scientifically processes all of the 490 tonnes of waste generated daily. Tewari highlighted that the ministry's data is at odds with the recent Swachh Survekshan rankings released on July 17. While Chandigarh was adjudged the second cleanest city in the 3-10 lakh population category, the survey revealed that the city had achieved only 14% in source segregation at the household level, far from the 100% figure cited in Parliament. According to the rankings, Chandigarh scored full marks in cleanliness of residential and market areas, public toilets, water bodies, waste processing, and dumpsite remediation. The city also recorded 93% in door-to-door collection. But its performance in segregation at source remained a major weak point. 'I had asked a Parliamentary Question on the non-functioning of the solid waste processing plant in Dadumajra. Not only did the government evade the core issue, but the figures given in the answer contradict the data available on the Swachh Survekshan website,' Tewari said.
