(PTI) NDA revives Women Reservation Bill August 6, 2026 EARLIER DEFEATED AS IT SEEKS TO CLUB BILL WITH DELIMITATION NEW DELHI, AUG 5 (PTI/AGENCIES): Even as Parliament remained paralysed for the 13th consecutive day, the Centre on Wednesday launched a fresh bid to secure passage of the Constitution (131st Amendment) Bill to implement 33% reservation for women in Parliament and state legislatures before the 2029 general elections and increase the strength of the Lok Sabha from 543 to 816 through a fresh delimitation exercise. The government has begun reaching out to the principal Opposition party Congress and NDA allies in an effort to build consensus for reintroducing the Bill during the ongoing Monsoon Session, nearly four months after a similar attempt failed due to lack of numbers. Amid the deadlock, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju met Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, while Prime Minister Narendra Modi separately met BJP MPs over breakfast. The government also plans to consult other opposition leaders, including Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and the DMK leadership, on the proposed legislation. Sources said Rijiju’s nearly 50-minute meeting with Gandhi focused on the possible reintroduction of the Bill, but the Congress leader did not commit his party’s support. Under the proposed legislation, the Lok Sabha’s strength would rise to 816 following a delimitation exercise based on the 2011 Census, while seats in state and Union Territory assemblies would also be increased to operationalise the 33% women’s reservation. The government is also considering a provision to increase the existing Lok Sabha seats of every state by 50%, irrespective of population, to address concerns raised by southern states. Government floor managers are trying to reintroduce the Bill, with certain modifications, next week before the Monsoon Session concludes on August 13. @*agnirV* Oppn marches to Parliament: Opposition MPs, including Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, marched from Mahatma Gandhi’s statue at Prerna Sthal to Makar Dwar, demanding a statement from Home Minister Amit Shah on the alleged police excesses against students, a discussion on the alleged misappropriation of Ram temple donations, and restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir. No special session: Rijiju ruled out extending the Monsoon Session or convening a special session later this month, saying no such proposal was under consideration. He accused the Opposition of deliberately stalling Parliament despite time being allotted for debate and criticised the Congress, CPI and Samajwadi Party for protesting over the alleged Ram temple donation issue inside the Parliament complex. ***[8/6, 8:06 AM] Vringa921: Riley Moore ‘Attack on Christians’: US lawmaker’s ‘India ties’ warning over foreign funds August 6, 2026 WASHINGTON, AUG 5 (AGENCIES): A US lawmaker has raised concern over New Delhi’s proposed amendments to Indian laws governing foreign donations received by NGOs, trusts, educational institutions, and religious organisations, threatening that the changes could affect bilateral relations. Republican Congressman from West Virginia, Riley Moore, has claimed the amendments to the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) would give power to the Indian government to take over churches and religious charities, a move he described as a “clear attack against Christians”. “Christians have been in India since St Thomas the Apostle travelled to the Malabar Coast just decades after the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. But despite this long Christian history, India’s Parliament is considering amending Foreign Contribution Regulation Amendment (FCRA) rules to permit government takeovers of churches and religious charities,” Moore, a member of President Donald Trump’s party, said in a post on X. “This is a clear attack against Christians. If this bill proceeds in this way, it would be a point of major concern in our bilateral relationship with India,” the first-term congressman added. ***[8/6, 8:08 AM] Vringa921: Pochury Hoho demands early completion of NH-29 package-II August 6, 2026 DIMAPUR, AUG 5 (NPN): Pochury Hoho (PH) has urged the National Highways and Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd. (NHIDCL), the state government and the executing agency to immediately expedite construction of the long-delayed NH-29 package-II (Kikruma) project on the Kohima-Jessami road. In a press release, PH president Chonpa Jurry and secretary Thosiepa Katiry expressed concern over the prolonged delay despite repeated assurances, saying the condition of the highway has caused immense hardship to the public and hampered the socio-economic development of the region. Describing the Kohima-Jessami road as the principal lifeline linking Phek, Meluri, Kiphire and Shamator districts with state capital, PH said the deteriorating road has severely affected commuters, patients, students, government employees, traders and transporters by increasing travel time and transportation costs, compromising safety and disrupting essential services. The Hoho also extended support to the concerns raised by the Chakhesang Public Organisation (CPO) and welcomed the Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed before the Gauhati High Court, Kohima Bench, seeking judicial intervention for the timely completion of the project. Calling for immediate and time-bound action, PH urged NHIDCL, Ratna Infrastructure Projects Pvt. Ltd. and all concerned authorities to accord the project the highest priority while ensuring transparency, accountability and efficiency in its execution. The Hoho said reliable road connectivity was essential for equitable development, healthcare, education, trade, tourism and regional integration, adding that the prolonged delay has denied people the benefits of critical infrastructure for far too long. Maintaining that completion of NH-29 Package-II was a matter of public welfare and regional development, PH called on the authorities to fulfil their responsibilities with urgency and deliver a safe, dependable and all-weather highway without further delay. ***[8/6, 8:11 AM] Vringa921: DC Dimapur bans heavy machinery for riverbed mining August 6, 2026 DIMAPUR, AUG 5 (NPN): Deputy Commissioner (DC) Dimapur, Dr. Tinojongshi Chang, has imposed a complete ban on the use of heavy machinery for the extraction of sand, gravel, boulders and other riverbed materials across the district without the requisite permissions and licences. The order, issued to protect the environment and public infrastructure, cited indiscriminate mechanised riverbed mining as a major cause of environmental degradation, biodiversity loss, ecosystem disruption, water contamination and damage to agricultural activities. It also noted that such activities have weakened roads, bridges, culverts, railway infrastructure and irrigation channels. According to the order, unregulated riverbed mining has increased the risks of riverbank erosion, landslides and other natural disasters, lowered groundwater levels, reduced water availability for drinking and irrigation, and disturbed the natural flow of sediments, threatening aquatic ecosystems, public safety and local livelihoods. DC said such activities violate provisions of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972, the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974, and Rules 49 and 50 of the Nagaland Minor Mineral Concession Rules, 2004. Mining operations undertaken without valid permits or licences will be treated as illegal. The order stated that extraction of riverbed materials using heavy machinery would only be permitted after obtaining approvals under the Nagaland (Ownership and Transfer of Land and its Resources) Act, 1990, the Nagaland Minor Mineral Concession Rules, 2004, and other applicable statutory requirements. DC warned that any individual, group, firm or organisation violating the order would face action under the relevant laws. To ensure compliance, a monitoring team comprising officials from the district administration, police, geology and mining, forest department, civil society organisations, and village, municipal and town councils has been constituted to oversee enforcement. ***[8/6, 8:14 AM] Vringa921: Incessant rain batters Nagaland, triggers floods and landslides August 6, 2026 DIMAPUR, AUG 5 (NPN): Incessant monsoon rains continued to batter Nagaland, triggering floods, landslides, road damage and disruption of connectivity across several districts, while district administrations, District Disaster Management Authorities (DDMAs) and line departments intensified restoration efforts.

At Vilhume Colony, floodwaters rose about four feet above road level, while the approach bridge to the colony was submerged at the peak of flooding. Residents, however, said the water level later receded. Deputy Commissioner (DC) Dimapur, Dr. Tinojongshi Chang, said teams from the District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) carried out field assessments in the affected areas. He added that no official reports of house damage or casualties had been received till the filing of this report.

In Chümoukedima, waterlogging was reported in Ward-9, while a section of the road connecting Jharnapani via Molvom was washed away. A road and culvert between New Chümoukedima and Ruzaphema Village also sustained damage. The Khughovi Bridge over the Chathe River has been closed after the river rose to a dangerous level. Flash floods triggered by incessant rainfall also washed away houses belonging to five families at Diphupar Village ‘L’ Khel. Landowners also reported severe riverbank erosion, claiming nearly half of their land had been lost over the past year due to recurring floods. The affected families have appealed to the state government for immediate relief and rehabilitation assistance. Flooding and waterlogging were reported at Kelielwa Colony in Jalukie under Peren district. In Meluri, floodwaters inundated paddy fields, while flash floods washed away the hanging bridges at Tetsho and Jijirii, disrupting local connectivity. Speaking over the phone, the chairman of Meluri village said standing paddy crops were devastated, while around 24 handmade embankments (bunds) were washed away. He said several suspension bridges, which served as vital access routes for farmers, were also swept away, cutting off connectivity to agricultural fields. He further said irrigation pipelines supplying water to paddy fields, along with other water supply lines, were completely destroyed, while roads sustained extensive damage. According to him, the situation worsened around 6.30 a.m. when the river level rose rapidly, sweeping away everything in its path. Phek district witnessed a landslide between Chizami and Mesulumi and a mudslide near Thuvopisu Village along the Phek–Chozouba Road. Road clearance operations were carried out on the Phek–Chozouba Road via Runguzu Nawu Village, while the blocked stretch between Losami and Phek Village has been reopened. In Noklak district, DDMA cleared a landslide at the 14-km stretch of the Noklak–Saddle Road.
