Union Minister #KirenRijiju (@KirenRijiju) writes to Congress President #MallikarjunKharge (@Kharge), saying that after repeated requests the Congress Parly didn't give dates for discussion after which the Govemment's outreach had extended to other political parties. Consultations were held with representatives of parties including the DMK, SP, YSRCP, NCP, Shiv Sena (UBT), AIMIM and BJD with a view to facilitating dialogue and building a broader consensus in support of the proposed legislation. In these circumstances, it is not clear why the demand for consultation is being made repeatedly, when the Government has already made sustained efforts for dialogue; what is now required is constructive cooperation from the opposition parties, rather than arepetition of the same demand without due regard to the consultations already undertaken.

These efforts reflect the Government's firm willingness to undertake consultation and constructive parliamentary engagement. I reiterate that the Government remains committed to the basic principles of parliamentary democracy and to facilitating meaningful dialogue through the effective functioning of Parliament. We value the participation of all political parties in deliberations and discussions on all matters of national importance. I also hope that Congress Party will play a constructive role and will not obstruct important future legislations.

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge has accused the BJP of undermining democratic rights, linking the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls to restrictions on protests at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar.

In a post on X, Kharge criticised the alleged labelling of people affected by the SIR process as “infiltrators” and raised concerns over the detention of young protesters and alleged police action against them. He also called on the government to stop protecting Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.

Kharge said the Congress would hold the BJP accountable for what he described as its oppressive policies.

Journalists. The INDIA bloc. Different banners, one cause. All protests are one: citizens demanding their constitutional rights. Jantar Mantar belongs to the people of India. We will reclaim it."
