IndiaTimes Friday, 22 December 2023
Bringing an end to the tumultuous winter session, both Houses of Parliament were adjourned sine die a day ahead of schedule. The session was marked by a major security breach, a record number of MP suspensions, and protests. Rajya Sabha approved three bills to overhaul India's criminal justice system, while Lok Sabha passed a bill on the appointment of the CEC and ECs. Additionally, a bill allowing the government to temporarily take over telecom services in the interest of national security was also passed. The total number of suspended members increased to 146, including the expulsion of TMC Lok Sabha member Mahua Moitra. Parliamentary affairs minister Pralhad Joshi moved a motion to suspend three Congress MPs, and opposition parties demanded a statement from home minister Amit Shah on the security breach.

Scotland's first minister quits rather than face no confidence vote

After torpedoing a relationship with the Greens and alienating his party, Scotland's first minister Humza Yousaf was due to face a vote of no-confidence later this week – but instead pre-emptively quit Parliament. Someone else at the "helm" would be a better fit as first minister, he said.

Tanzania Floods: At least 155 killed in Tanzania as heavy rains pound East Africa | Oneindia

Intense rainfall over several weeks in Tanzania has triggered devastating flooding and landslides, claiming the lives of 155 individuals and leaving 236 others injured, according to the country's Prime Minister, Kassim Majaliwa.

LS Polls 2024: Congress manifesto launch | Priyanka Gandhi, Kharge slam BJP, Modi | Oneindia News

Top Congress leaders, including the party president Mallikarjun Kharge, former president Sonia Gandhi, held a rally in Jaipur on Saturday, April 6, to publicly launch its election manifesto 'Nyay Patra'. The Jaipur public rally comes a day after the Congress released its manifesto for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls promising a legal guarantee for MSP, and passing a constitutional amendment to raise the 50 per cent cap on reservations for SCs, STs and OBCs among others. The release of the manifesto 'Nyay Patra' was announced by Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, expressing happiness and pride in her mother Sonia Gandhi's presence in Rajasthan after becoming a member of the Rajya Sabha. Unemployment, claimed to be at its peak, was criticised, with allegations made against the BJP and Modi government for failing to address the issue adequately. The Agniveer scheme, accused of shattering people's hopes, was mentioned, along with concerns raised about leaked papers in various states and the ongoing protests by farmers, suggesting that PM Modi is unwilling to heed their grievances.
