The Opposition walked out of the Lok Sabha during Union Home Minister Amit Shah's speech on electoral reforms. Responding to their boycott, Mr. Shah said it would have no impact on the government's efforts and reiterated that "not a single infiltrator will be allowed to vote." He noted that he had criticised former Congress leaders earlier in his speech, but the Opposition chose to leave only when he raised the issue of infiltrators, implying they were avoiding the subject.
