Parliament Session 2025: Sports and Anti-Doping Legislation on the Agenda

The Parliament’s Monsoon Session of 2025, which will end on August 21, is seeing frequent interruptions in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. These interruptions stem from protests by the opposition concerning the Bihar caste survey (SIR). On Monday, the INDIA bloc boycotted the session and instead protested at the Election Commission, alleging “vote manipulation”. The Delhi Police detained Rahul Gandhi and other opposition MPs. The Lok Sabha passed the National Sports Governance Bill and the National Anti-Doping (Amendment) Bill on Monday. The same bills are anticipated to be introduced in the Rajya Sabha, where the ruling NDA anticipates a seamless passage.
