Congress MP Randeep Singh Surjewala submitted an Adjournment motion in the Rajya Sabha to discuss the alleged police excesses during student protests.
He requested that the regular business of the day in the Rajya Sabha be suspended “for an immediate discussion on the reported assault on peacefully protesting students in Delhi on 20 July 2026, the use of lathi-charge, tear gas and pellet guns, the alleged assault on women students and journalists.”
He also sought a statement from the “Union Home Minister clarifying whether the use of force was authorised and identifying those responsible and to seek a statement from the Hon’ble Prime Minister on the Government’s response, accountability and safeguards for the future. In view of these pressing concerns, the matter requires urgent consideration and discussion by the House”.
