The Congress said it will demand a discussion on the Manipur situation in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha in the upcoming Monsoon session.  The Party on Saturday said it will raise the issue of continuous silence of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the continuous ineffectiveness of Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Manipur in both the Houses of Parliament.

The Party also said it will raise some other pressing issues facing the country such as railway safety in the wake of the Balasore train tragedy, assault on the federal structure of the country, demand of joint parliamentary committee probe into the Adani issue, inflation, bringing the GST under the purview of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act and the sexual harassment allegations against BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh.

In the meantime, the Narendra Modi government is planning to bring 21 new Bills, including one that intends to replace the contentious Delhi ordinance and another to process digital personal data, during the upcoming Monsoon Session of Parliament starting next Thursday.

Altogether, the government intends to pass 31 Bills in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha during the session that ends on August 11. The proposed legislations also include the Bills seeking withdrawal of the contentious DNA Technology (Use and Application) Regulation Bill, 2019 and The Cinematograph (Amendment) Bill, 2019.
