The Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha were adjourned for the day on July 20 amid a ruckus created by Opposition parties who are demanding discussion on Manipur violence and a recent horror video that came out on social media platforms. In Manipur, the viral video showed two women, stripped naked, held and groped by a mob of men, and dragged to a field.

On the first day of Parliament’s Monsoon Session, some parties moved an adjournment motion on Manipur violence and other issues. The opposition also demanded the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the discussion. Before the beginning of the monsoon session on Thursday, PM Modi condemned the incidents linked to sexual atrocities in Manipur and said that “What has happened to daughters of Manipur can never be forgiven, guilty will not be spared”.

During the Parliament monsoon session on day 1, opposition parties were sloganeering “Manipur Manipur” and “Manipur is burning”. PM Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, and Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury were among those who were present in the House.
