Overview
- At the NDA parliamentary party meeting, the prime minister said India has entered a full-fledged “Reform Express” phase focused on citizen-first changes rather than revenue goals.
- He urged MPs to end 30–40-page forms, stop repeated data submissions, deliver services at people’s doorsteps, and share real ground-level problems directly with him.
- Modi was felicitated by NDA leaders following the alliance’s Bihar Assembly victory, reinforcing coalition unity as the Winter Session advances.
- Flagging IndiGo disruptions as a public concern, the government noted DGCA action cutting the airline’s schedule by 5% and requiring a revised plan by Wednesday evening.
- The Lok Sabha scheduled a debate on election reforms that includes the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision of voter rolls, with opposition parties raising concerns; a special NDA MPs’ dinner on December 11 is reported as likely to coordinate strategy.
