Youth dies after alleged beating at South Garia drug rehab, family vandalizes centre in protest
Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar, addressing the conclusion of the winter session, expressed dismay at the nearly 22 hours of lost business in the Upper House due to what he termed "avoidable disruptions." Dhankhar accused opposition members of "weaponizing disruptions and disturbance as a political strategy," emphasizing that such tactics are inconsistent with the constitutional duty to prioritize the interests of the people.
Despite disruptions, the winter session saw the passage of 17 bills, including significant ones related to Jammu & Kashmir, the appointment of election commissioners, and reforms in criminal jurisprudence.
