The Registration of Births and Deaths (Amendment) Bill, 2026 was cleared in three minutes is not accurate. PRS lists two minutes and Business Standard lists four minutes for this bill.
Why we say that›
Lok Sabha passed seven bills in 28 minutes but no standalone UPI bill exists and one listed time is wrong.
The total time and most bill durations match PRS records. Two specific claims contradict those records. The judgment that this is shameful follows from the short times but rests on inaccurate details.
The short passage times are real and support the rushed-work characterization, though two bill details are factually wrong.
