Rajya Sabha erupted in chaos during the debate on the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026, after Leader of the Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge referred to the Manusmriti while criticizing the government's education policies. Leader of the House JP Nadda strongly objected, demanding that Kharge authenticate his remarks and warning that such statements could disrupt social harmony. BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi also countered Kharge's arguments with historical references and Dr. B.R. Ambedkar's writings. The heated exchange led to uproar in the Upper House before the Chair ordered the disputed remarks to be expunged from the official records.

A major political confrontation unfolded in the Rajya Sabha after Delhi Police entered the CPI(M) headquarters, AKG Bhavan, in New Delhi while attempting to execute a non-bailable warrant against student activist Aishe Ghosh. Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge questioned the legality of the police action and demanded accountability, while Union Minister JP Nadda defended the operation, calling it a routine law-and-order exercise. A video of CPI(M) MP John Brittas confronting Delhi Police inside the party headquarters has also gone viral. Meanwhile, the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has warned of a fresh round of nationwide protests if any action is taken against Aishe Ghosh.
