Summary
India's parliament Monsoon Session 2026 opened on July 20 but both Houses were adjourned within hours after Congress-led opposition members disrupted proceedings demanding debates on two issues: the NEET-UG 2026 medical-entrance exam paper leak, and alleged embezzlement of donations at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra (Ram Janmabhoomi Trust) in Ayodhya. Outside parliament, Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP) organised a "Sansad Chalo" (March to Parliament) protest.
Why it matters
The NEET-UG paper leak has already prompted student protests across India, touching a sensitive nerve about exam integrity for a single-gateway test that determines medical school admissions for hundreds of thousands of students. Pairing it with the Ram Janmabhoomi donations row in the same disruption reflects the opposition's strategy to open multiple pressure points on the ruling NDA at the start of the session when legislative momentum is highest.
What to watch
Whether the government offers a parliamentary debate or statement on NEET; the legislative agenda items BJP plans to advance through the session; and whether the CJP protest leads to further demonstrations or a judicial escalation.
