Parliament Monsoon Session Day 12 LIVE: PM Modi to address NDA parliamentary meeting
The leaders of the INDIA bloc on Tuesday (August 5, 2025) will stage a protest at 10:30 am in front of Makar Dwar in Parliament against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to address the BJP-led NDA parliamentary party meeting today, a get-together of the ruling alliance's MPs which is being held after a considerable gap. The meeting comes in the middle of the Parliament session which has been all but a washout so far, except for a two-day discussion on the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor. The Parliament did not function on Monday (August 4, 2025) with Opposition parties disrupting the Lok Sabha over demands for a discussion on the SIR of electoral rolls in Bihar. The Rajya Sabha was adjourned as a mark of respect for member Shibu Soren, who passed away. According to the List of Business issued by the Lok Sabha Secretariat, Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya is scheduled to move amendments to the National Anti-Doping Act, 2022, for consideration and passage in the House. The Union Sports Minister will also move the National Sports Governance Bill, 2025, in the lower house of the Parliament. Read live updates here:

Jailed Hisar-based YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra's father, Harish Malhotra, on Monday wrote to President Droupadi Murmu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home minister Amit Shah, Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini and state governor Ashim Kumar Ghosh and urged them to drop the Official Secrets Act against his daughter, who was arrested on espionage charges on May 16. Jailed Hisar-based YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra's father, Harish Malhotra, on Monday wrote to President Droupadi Murmu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home minister Amit Shah, Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini and state governor Ashim Kumar Ghosh and urged them to drop the Official Secrets Act against his daughter, who was arrested on espionage charges on May 16. (File photo) In the letter, Jyoti's father alleged that the Hisar police picked up his daughter and asked her to sign a blank page and they wrote 'fake statement' on her behalf. 'I can assure you that my daughter will never go to Pakistan and request you to cancel the FIR. The police did not get any evidence to prove that my daughter had shared some sensitive information to Pakistani operatives. The Hisar SP himself had stated that Jyoti did not share any military information with Pakistani nationals. If the central and state agencies direct to delete any video from Jyoti's social accounts, she will delete all such videos,' he added. On his daughter's Pakistan visits, Harish wrote that his parents came to India during the Partition and his daughter desired to visit Pakistan to make videos and understand the culture, where her grandparents stayed. 'My daughter's international tours were sponsored by a few travel agencies and she made blogs there. She is patriotic and if you want to check her love for India, she is ready to undergo the polygraph test. After divorce from my wife, I had raised my daughter and my brother. She was the lone person to take care of us. We request you to cancel the FIR and release her so that she can take care of us,' he added. Jyoti was produced in the court through video conferencing and her judicial custody was extended for 14 more days.

Govt prepared for Cong, BJP agitations, says HM Parameshwara
Bengaluru: Home Minister G Parameshwara on Monday said all necessary security precautions have been taken ahead of the protests planned by the ruling Congress and BJP here on August 5. While Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will lead a rally against 'vote theft' during the Lok Sabha polls last year at Freedom Park in the city, the opposition BJP will hold a counter-protest at Vidhana Soudha 'to inform the public about the misleading stand of Congress'. The day will also see state-wide protests by Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) employees. Speaking to the reporters, the Home Minister said, 'The government has the capability to handle everything. Adequate police personnel have been deployed for security. Instructions have been issued for all necessary measures.' Parameshwara also gave more details about the Anti-Narcotic Task Force (ANTF), formed to eradicate drugs in Bengaluru city. 'They function like a task force. They act based on wherever the information comes from. We have already given specific instructions to every Superintendent of Police,' said the minister. He also added that to make it even stronger, personnel from Anti-Naxal Force (ANF) have been transferred to ANTF. 'We have declared that there are no more Naxals in Karnataka. In that context, there was a discussion on disbanding the ANF. However, we decided to retain it and reduce the number of personnel. About 200 to 250 personnel were taken from ANF to the Special Action Force. We had taken them for Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts. Now, since there was a staff shortage in Bengaluru, a few were taken from ANF. If there is a need again, we will redeploy personnel.' He also said the report of the statewide survey of Scheduled Castes (SC), overseen by Justice Nagamohan Das Commission, will be submitted to the Chief Minister on Monday. 'After that, the government will act based on the contents of the report. We undertook this with the intention of ensuring internal reservation, and we will implement it,' said the minister.
