The Parliament passed the Election Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2021, today with Rajya Sabha approving it through voice vote amid a walkout by the Opposition. The Bill seeks to link electoral rolls with the Aadhaar ecosystem to weed out duplicate voters and fake votes. It was passed by Lok Sabha on Monday; Prime Minister Narendra Modi initiated the transfer of Rs 1,000 crore to women's Self-Help Groups in Prayagraj today in what his office described as a "one of a kind" scheme. The project under Central Schemes is expected to benefit 16 lakh women; Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress scored a landslide victory in the Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) election today, continuing its winning streak after the Bengal Assembly polls in April-May and the recent by-polls. The party is set for a third straight term in the civic body and other top stories.
