"Insult To Democracy, People": PM On Opposition's Parliament Protests

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday renewed his attack on the opposition, accusing it, once again, of not allowing the Parliament's monsoon session top function. At a meeting of BJP MPs he declared this "an insult to Parliament... the constitution... to democracy and to the public". This is the second time in a week that the Prime Minister has lashed out at the opposition over fierce protests in both Houses of Parliament over a number of issues, including the Pegasus phone-hacking row, the government's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and the farmers' protest. Last week the Prime Minister accused the Congress of deliberately spurning attempts at resolving an impasse that has seen little, if any, work in the monsoon session of Parliament.
