Lok Sabha passes two tax Bills without debate; Rijiju issues ultimatum to Opposition

As the Opposition members continued their protest, the Lok Sabha on Monday (August 11, 2025) passed the two crucial Bills pertaining to taxation without any debate.

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman introduced the Income-Tax (No 2) Bill and the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Bill in the Lok Sabha when no Opposition member was present in the House. Most of the Opposition leaders had been detained while marching towards the headquarters of the Election Commission against the revision of the Bihar electoral rolls and alleged electoral malpractices.
