NEW DELHI: The beginning of Day 2 of the Parliament’s Winter Session was marked by protests and demonstrations as the Opposition members kept up the heat on the government over issues of Special Intensive Revision (SIR) and electoral reforms.

Several lawmakers, from the Opposition parties, stood in the Parliament premises, before the beginning of the session, holding placards and banners and demanding urgent discussion in the House over ECI’s “biased and partisan” voter verification drive, currently ongoing in 12 states and union territories (UTs).
