Parliament’s Monsoon Session could see a breakthrough after Home Minister Amit Shah offered to answer Opposition questions on the police action during the July 20 Chalo Sansad march. The Opposition, however, has rejected the offer, with Rahul Gandhi saying it does not want a “lecture” from the Home Minister. With the session set to end tomorrow, we look at whether the proposed discussion can break the deadlock and how the BJP-Congress face-off over police action against student protesters in Delhi and Jharkhand has shaped the impasse. We also bring you the latest on a deadly landslip in Mumbai, Tata Sons Chairman N. Chandrasekaran’s decision to step down in February 2027, Tamil Nadu’s resolution on delimitation and women’s reservation, and Rahul Gandhi’s response to the dismissal of criminal charges against Gautam Adani. Above the Fold is The Hindu’s daily news show, bringing you the day’s biggest stories with clarity, depth and context. #parliament #indianpolitics #amitshah 00:00
