Honorable Minister of Home Affairs, Mr. Amit Shah, you’ve claimed time and again that ‘strong governance’ is necessary to protect India’s security. But when sedition charges are used to target journalists, activists, and students, not terrorists, what exactly are you trying to secure? In 2020, over 100 sedition cases were filed, and communal violence surged by 40% according to the national crime records bureau. How does the minister stand here preaching strengthening India's democracy, when you have been consistently turning our democracy into a tool for repression?

Honourable Minister, Ms. Smriti Irani, there have been rising instances of women and children, especially from minority communities, facing targeted violence due to religious hatred. What national programs or reforms has your ministry launched to ensure that women and youth are safeguarded from the social effects of extremism and discrimination?

Honourable Prime Minister, you speak of national unity and combating religious extremism, yet Human Rights Watch reports and the Independent both of which are reliable and well known news sources state that you made over 100 Islamophobic remarks during the election campaign. How does a government that implements communal division and silences dissent intend to dismantle the very extremism it cultivates?"

Mr. Modi, when bulldozers are used to demolish homes in Muslim localities without due process, and hate speech by majority leaders goes unchecked, with what audacity do you justify this action taken against minorities and still make blantly false claims in campaign speeches against Muslims and other minority groups

Madam Irani, considering India's rank on the World Press Freedom Index, which has seen a decline in recent years, how does the government intend to balance national security concerns with the fundamental right of the press to operate freely, especially when media outlets are under threat for reporting on issues of corruption or human rights abuses?"

"Honorable Scindia, in 2020, your resignation caused the fall of the Madhya Pradesh government, and at the same time, we saw tensions rising in some communities. How do you personally ensure that your political decisions don’t fuel religious extremism and that laws like UAPA and sedition are applied fairly?"

Honorable Minister of home affairs, According to the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) India was designated as a ‘Country of Particular Concern’ for the sixth year running, The USCIRF also recommended sanctions against India’s external intelligence agency for its alleged role in transnational repression. The Indian government continued to dismiss these concerns as ‘biased and politically motivated’, and ‘unfounded and baseless’. How do you justify this fact ?

Honourable Minister, Mr. Amit Shah, the frequent invocation of UAPA and sedition laws against journalists, students, and activists has drawn criticism for stifling dissent. How does your ministry ensure that these laws are used solely against genuine threats to national security and not as tools of political intimidation?
