Opposition MPs, led by Congress's Pawan Khera, protested outside Parliament on Thursday with a toy monkey and chanted '56 inch ka chhota bandar, jaldi aao sadan ke andar'. The protest came during the Monsoon Session's final day. Video posted by ANI showed the demonstration. The chant and posters drew criticism from the BJP, with Times Now's debate asking if such personal attacks have replaced meaningful debate in Parliament. The Opposition did not specify what policy issue triggered the protest.
