Repeated disruptions in RS after opposition uproar

15 Dec 2022 Evaluate

Rajya Sabha (RS) proceedings were adjournments thrice today during the first hour as opposition members created an uproar after being denied notices.

The House witnessed two back-to-back adjournments of 15 minutes each and then again for two minutes during the Zero Hour as opposition members indulged slogans demanding that their notices be admitted for a discussion. Soon after laying of papers, Deputy Chairman Harivansh said notices given by seven members were not allowed.

Raghav Chadha (AAP), Pramod Tiwari, Akhilesh Prasad Singh, L Hanumanthaiah (Congress), Priyanka Chaturvedi (Shiv Sena), Jebi Mather and Syed Nasir Hussain (Congress) had given adjournment notices on subjects related to concern over government's alleged attempt to interfere in appointment in higher judiciary, ‘misuse’ of CBI, ED and other government agencies, situation arising out of farmers' strike and ‘subversion’ of democratic system and ‘threatening’ of electoral process. The BJP members were also raised the issue of the Bihar hooch tragedy. Biplab Kumar Dev (BJP) demanded a discussion on the hooch tragedy matter in Bihar instead of his listed Zero Hour submission.
