India needs a serious opposition in parliament
The monsoon session of Parliament is on the horizon, with the government holding an absolute majority. This means that any bill proposed by the government is likely to pass without much opposition. However, the public expects their elected opposition leaders to voice their concerns and represent their interests in Parliament. It is crucial for the opposition to highlight any deficiencies in the government's bills and propose solutions for rectification.

The monsoon session of Parliament is on the horizon, with the government holding an absolute majority. This means that any bill proposed by the government is likely to pass without much opposition. However, the public expects their elected opposition leaders to voice their concerns and represent their interests in Parliament. It is crucial for the opposition to highlight any deficiencies in the government's bills and propose solutions for rectification.
If the opposition's strategy is to avoid work by making excuses during every session and not attending the proceedings, it is unfair to blame the government for passing bills unilaterally and running the country arbitrarily.
The opposition needs to be strong and focus on substantial issues. Instead of resorting to shouting slogans and walking out, they should seize every opportunity to make their point effectively. It is important for the opposition to demonstrate that they genuinely care about the welfare of the people and are actively working towards addressing their concerns.
