Winter session of Parliament to be held from Dec 1 to 19

The Winter session of Parliament will be held from December 1 to 19, Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju announced on Saturday, in what the opposition has described as an “unusually delayed” and truncated session.

The three-week session will have 15 sittings in all and is expected to be stormy as it comes in the midst of the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in 12 States and Union Territories, an exercise against which several opposition parties have raised objections.

The Monsoon



session of Parliament also saw vociferous protests by several opposition parties over the SIR in Bihar that led to daily disruptions in Parliament.

“The Hon’ble President of India Smt. Droupadi Murmu ji has approved the proposal of the Government to convene the #WinterSession of Parliament from 1st December 2025 to 19th December 2025 (subject to exigencies of Parliamentary business),” Rijiju said on X.

“Looking forward to a constructive and meaningful Session that strengthens our democracy and serves the aspirations of the people,” he said.
