BJP MPs walk out of Parliament panel meeting over Medha Patkar's proposed testimony
A parliamentary committee session on the land acquisition law was disrupted when BJP MPs objected to social activist Medha Patkar's scheduled testimony. Accusations of Patkar being "anti-national" and stalling development led to a heated exchange between opposition and BJP members. The BJP bloc, holding a majority in attendance, ultimately walked out, prematurely ending the session.
