Opposition MPs in the Rajya Sabha staged a walkout on Wednesday, demanding a debate on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. They accused the Union government of "vote theft," leading to two adjournments before the House resumed. Despite the protests, The Indian Institute of Technology (Amendment) Bill, 2025, was taken up, prompting the opposition's exit.
