Parliament Monsoon session to be conducted from July 20 to Aug 13: Kiren Rijiju

Union Minister of Parliamentary Affairs Kiren Rijiju on Saturday announced that the Monsoon session of Parliament will be conducted from July 20 to August 13, 2026.

ET had earlier reported that Parliament's monsoon session is likely to begin on July 20 and conclude on August 13, with a proposal to this effect before the Cabinet Committee on Parliamentary Affairs.

"On the recommendation of the government of India, Hon’ble President, Smt. Droupadi Murmu ji has approved the summoning of both the Houses of Parliament for the Monsoon Session 2026," he said in a post on X.


"The Session will commence on 20 July, 2026 and continue till 13 August, 2026 for meaningful debate, discussion and decisions on issues of National Importance," he added.

The Monsoon Session will be closely watched as government is expected to make another bid to push the Constitution amendment bill that seeks a uniform 50% increase in the strength of the Lok Sabha and state assemblies to operationalise the 33% women reservation.

The government is likely to push the contentious Constitution (130th Amendment) Bill, 2025, in the upcoming monsoon session of Parliament, with the joint parliamentary committee (JPC) examining the legislation expected to adopt its report on July 17, sources told ET.
