New Delhi. The Ji Ram Ji Bill was passed by voice vote in the Lok Sabha today amidst loud uproar by the opposition. Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan replied in the Lok Sabha on the Vikas Bharat Guarantee for Employment and Livelihood Mission (Rural) Bill 2025 i.e. VB Ji Ram Ji. During this, loud slogans were raised by the opposition against this bill. Some opposition MPs reached the well and tore the bill copy and threw it in the air. After the passing of the bill, the Speaker of the Lok Sabha adjourned the proceedings of the House till tomorrow i.e. Friday.

The discussion on VB Ji Ram Ji Bill went on till 1.35 am in the Lok Sabha a day earlier on Wednesday. 98 MPs took part in this debate. When Lok Sabha proceedings resumed this morning, Congress MP KG Venugopal requested the Lok Sabha Speaker to send this bill to the Standing Committee or Joint Parliamentary Committee. Whereas the Speaker of the Lok Sabha rejected the request of the Congress MP and said that this bill has been discussed for more than 14 hours. After this, an uproar started from the opposition against the bill, although Union Minister Shivraj Singh continued his speech amid the uproar.

Let us tell you that Ji Ram Ji Bill will replace the 20 year old Mahatma Gandhi National Employment Guarantee Act (MNREGA). Congress alleges that the government wants to remove Mahatma Gandhi’s name from MNREGA. It is noteworthy that the Congress-led UPA government had brought the MNREGA law in 2005, under which people in rural areas were guaranteed 100 days of employment in a year. Now under this new law, the NDA government will provide 125 days of employment in rural areas every year.
