Later, BJP slammed the RS LoP for “threatening” to incite violence against Shah.Kharge picked up from where Rahul Gandhi had left off in LS Wednesday, in what is being seen in certain BJP quarters as a confirmation of a plan by Congress to target Shah.Faced with angry protests, Kharge in RS clarified that he meant “Jan shakti (people’s power) will drag him out to make him accountable. I never meant physically dragging him out.”Speaking on Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, Kharge slammed absence of PM Narendra Modi and Shah from RS, saying they hadn’t spoken anything despite so much unrest. “Despite so much unrest, you are not opening your mouth.

Optimal use of technology is necessary, he added.Public Examination (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026, was cleared by voice vote in RS amid a walkout by a large section of the opposition, a day after it was passed by LS. This will become a law after the President’s assent.Replying to the discussion on the bill in Rajya Sabha, Union minister Jitendra Singh highlighted measures taken by govt in the education sector, including NEP-2020 and an increase in the number of universities.Earlier in the day, Singh had told the Upper House that the bill testifies the govt does not stand on prestige and is open to healthy inputs. “We are open to constructive suggestions from all quarters, and that’s exactly the reason why, in the wake of the recent sequence of events, the PM lost no time to declare that nobody will be allowed to jeopardise the future of our children and also announced the resolve of zero tolerance to paper leaks,” he said.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesAccording to the bill, individuals involved in paper leaks or unfair means in exams will get jail terms for a minimum of five years and a maximum of 10 years and a fine of up to Rs 50 lakh.

As per the direction, Karnataka will have to release a total of 4 TMC (thousand million cubic) feet of river water to the neighbouring state.The decision came after an emergency meeting convened by the authority to consider Karnataka’s appeal against the committee’s Wednesday order. The meeting was called as Karnataka appealed to the authority against the order, taking the plea that ‘below normal’ monsoon rainfall had depleted reservoir levels and that drought conditions prevailed in the state.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesState officials are learnt to have told the authority that Cauvery basin reservoirs in Karnataka currently held around 36.7 TMC of water, which was substantially lower than the 99 TMC recorded during corresponding period last year. They pleaded that it would be difficult to even meet drinking water requirements and other essential needs in the present situation.Tamil Nadu’s representatives, however, opposed Karnataka’s plea, arguing that the committee’s recommendation dealt with only the minimum quantity that should be released. They pointed out that the reservoirs had enough flow and alleged that Karnataka had failed to properly implement the distress-sharing formula prescribed in the situation of deficient rainfall in a particular year.Get the latest India News and Live updates.
