Parliament adjourned for the day due to uproar

New Delhi – As soon as the Monsoon Session of Parliament commenced on the morning of 20 July, Opposition members created a ruckus over issues such as the alleged NEET question paper leak and the theft of donations at the Shriram Temple. Owing to the uproar, proceedings of the House were first adjourned until 12 noon. However, when the House reassembled, the Opposition again created a ruckus, following which the proceedings were adjourned until 12.30 p.m. and later for the rest of the day.

The same situation prevailed in the Rajya Sabha, and its proceedings were also adjourned for the rest of the day.

Editorial Perspective

The membership of those responsible for disrupting Parliament and causing its proceedings to be adjourned should be cancelled. They should also be made to bear the expenses incurred in running Parliament during the disrupted period.
