Mitron, #LokSabha just passed the 500+ clause #IncomeTaxBill WITHOUT any debate, within JUST 3 MINUTES 👏👏 (Must see video👇) But it didn't stop at that! Immediately after that, the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2025 was also passed WITHOUT any debate, in next 1 MINUTE 👏👏 Oh, and before we... forget to mention, both these Bills were introduced today itself, just 2 hours before being passed. They were added to the agenda of House through a supplementary list🤭 So, anyway, no MP would have gotten a chance to read the loooong bills, so they did away with debate altogether. Very convenient, no? During this, in background there were protests on #SIR, #VoteChori and chants of "Loktantra ki hatya bandh karo" (stop murdering #democracy), "Shame, Shame!" could be heard! But even this wasn't enough! Earlier at 2pm, National #Sports Governance Bill, 2025 + National Anti-Doping (Amendment) Bill, 2025 were passed within JUST 34 minutes👏👏 - Combined these Bills have 45+ clauses - Only 2 MPs spoke on the Bill - Minister alone spoke for ~14 mins - Voting went on for ~7 mins - Protests were going on in background - Opposition MPs had moved amendments, which were summarily dismissed as they were either protesting or not in House (can't be sure as Sansad TV doesn't show opposition MPs) Isn't #Parliament so efficient and productive today?show more

And for those who want to blame the Opposition MPs for not doing their job, for protesting, for not participating in debates, sure these are valid criticisms, as elected representatives, they are also accountable to #citizens. But as we have explained here, there is a predictable pattern to Bills being pushed through as Opposition is protesting. It plays out much too often, almost like a strategy:

Completely misleading post, the bill is the newer version of the one already introduced and vetted by the select committee. It incorporates the amendments suggested. Classic engagement farming

Already explained the flaw in this argument in the post here - And interesting that you are making this argument despite acknowledging yourself that this is a 'newer' version. How is any MP expected to verify the fact that 'it incorporated the amendments suggested' by Committee when there was only a 2 hours gap between introduction and passing of a Bill running into 536 clauses and 16 schedules? Amazing, the length to which we will go to defend 'a' government without realising the wrong precedents it is setting which can be exploited by 'every' future government!

There is a reason why I called it ‘misleading’ and not False. The post suggested that there were was no parliamentary scrutiny at all which was certainly not the case.

Debate with who really, when does the opposition really debates on relevant issues. It pains to see them ask stupid questions. A strong opposition is the base for good governance but unfortunately our opposition sucks

That is exactly what the Govt wants us to believe! But anyway, to your first question on 'debate with who really', aren't there NDA MPs, independent non-aligned MPs in Lok Sabha who could have spoken on the Bill, if the Opposition MPs are so useless? Why didn't the Govt let them speak?

I am completely with u, but if i am not wrong this was already vetted bill. But I am all for asking questions unfortunately I was disappointed on the level of questions asked during op sindoor discussions.

Already explained why a Bill being vetted by a Committee doesn't mean that no debate happens on it -

Absolute bulldozer autocracy in the temple of democracy. 👏🏼

Stupid, the bill stands vetted already. Select committee

The fact that this Bill was sent to a Select Committee is certainly an improvement over most other Bills which do not get sent to Committees. It is, however, no substitute for debate in the House, for the following reasons: - The draft of the Bill which was sent to the Committee was replaced, Govt introduced a fresh Bill today, as mentioned in our post. - Who has analysed the differences between the draft sent to Committee and Bill passed today? How do we know the Bill passed today is better or worse than the Bill sent to Committee? How can we be sure that no 'new' clauses were added to Bill which would not have been 'vetted' by the Committee? The rules and procedures of #Parliament are clear. Bills which have been reported upon by a Committee also have to be 'considered' and passed in the same way. Sending a Bill to a Committee doesn't do away the requirement of debate in House. Also, the Govt wants to have it both ways - Most Bills it wont sent to a Committee and when it does, it will pass it without a debate. Waah Modi ji Waah! Calling us stupid won't change these facts! This is NOT how Bills must be passed in a #democracy!

Opposition protest is one part, but here the bigger rot is procedural capture, where agenda is altered hours before and MPs have no time to even read. This is not new, but scale is HIGH. UK Commons or even Sri Lanka follow notice periods. India is moving in reverse.

Wow, so efficient. Must be some Guinness world record!

Amrit kaal

Parliament’s new speed record… 👎 Passing complex bills in minutes, debate in seconds… Democracy fast track to silence and surrender... 🚩

It was told earlier that it will be again discussed in lok sabha on 11th with the time all they want to do is roar as what is heard in bg of the video also had. Also the bill was in commities and variours changes was also done to that.

@ShashiTharoor will you open mouth now ?

Ye batao middle class ki aur kin kin tarahon se maari gai hai is bill me?

Only impacts 2% of Indians - So dirty corrupt and incompetent vote bank politicians don’t care

Every loophole will be used in current time for achieving their nefarious goals.

Meanwhile, the Opposition is busy protesting, but legislative business must continue. We are already in the fourth week of the Monsoon Session, and excluding today’s bill, only two bills were passed in the first three weeks due to Opposition chaos.

Don’t worry every law will be scrapped within 3 years let them change what ever they want but for 3 years only.

For your kind information, sh @KirenRijiju ji already informed before lunch that we will not tolerate any nuisance now and all important bills will be passed with or without the gang of thugs called opposition.

@Swamy39

With whom to debate, opposition sits quiet only on days when they want to speak else they keep shouting. Government can't wait for them to maintain decorum and have debate because they will never. They find an issue everytime and create such ruckus in every session.

Bill is passed by those who have not and won't pay any Income tax.

were opposition MP's protesting at ECI OFFICE?

cc @CzarVT

This happens when Opposition gives free pass with non sensical protests! Instead they could have debated on these bills and given reality check to govt

SM boycott & debate of every bill is new normal. Controlled Opposition & Compromised ruling.

When the opposition is not in a mood to run the house, what do you expect?

@grok What is SIR in this context?

@SauravDassss The sheep defending this govt here are so blinded by hatred they themselves don't realize that they're being led to slaughter. Your coming generations will curse you for what you've wrought.

Opposition doesn't let a single good work or a good decision to be taken, they only stall the work. What MPs did to pass the bill was perfect. OPPOSITION takes every opportunity to ruin the productive sessions, create ruckus.

Debate with whom the thugs who are hell bent to demonise the institutions of the country

This is what happens when opposition disrupts the houses instead of doing its duty in both the houses. @rahulgandhi should have gone to SC on vote chori. His duty is to be present in House and debate. Entire opposition is a waste. EC does not collect data,it is state governments.

Welcome to thuggistan ruled by modi shah piglets.
