The PRS report on the 17th Lok Sabha reveals that it’s likely to be the shortest full-term Lok Sabha since 1952. The session saw limited legislative activity and minimal budget discussion amidst continuous disruptions. Only one bill was passed without discussion, and the proposed expenditure was approved without debate. The Lok Sabha functioned for only 33% of its scheduled time, with poor performance during Question Hour and no discussion on Private Member Bills. Debates in Parliament were significantly reduced, highlighting challenges in legislative efficiency and accountability.
