Modi, Shah call separately on President Murmu

NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday called on President Droupadi Murmu amid a logjam in Parliament over the opposition's demand for a discussion on the special intensive revision exercise in Bihar ahead of assembly elections in the state.

Home minister Amit Shah also called on the President separately later. The Rashtrapati Bhavan posted photos of both interactions on X.


Except for discussions on Operation Sindoor, Parliament has seen little business since the monsoon session began on July 21.

The meetings also came days after US President Trump announced 25% tariffs on Indian exports and an unspecified penalty over Russian purchases.
