Ansari expresses strong displeasure over disruptions in Budget session

08 May 2013 Evaluate

Rajya Sabha Chairman Hamid Ansari, expressing strong displeasure over the total wash out of the second part of the Budget session asked MPs whether they have assessed the impact of disruptive behaviour on public opinion.

Posing three questions before the members, which he said need to be addressed, Ansari wondered whether the balance between deliberations, legislations and accountability has been lost due to regular disruptions of the proceedings. The Chairman also posed as to whether time had not come to bridge the growing gap between the rules of procedures and the need felt by different sections of the House to voice their opinion on matters of concern.

Ansari's remarks suggesting the need for some change in procedures are significant in the backdrop of a number of disruptions in proceedings in recent times by members, who wanted to raise a particular issue that went contrary to the established rules.
