Rajya Sabha adjourned for the day over opposition protest – The Economic Times

Rajya Sabha proceedings were adjourned for the day on Tuesday as the Opposition members continued their protest over the Adani issue. As soon as the Upper House assembled at 2 pm after an adjournment in the morning, Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar informed about the bills which were scheduled for discussion in the House.However, the Opposition MPs, several of them dressed in black, created a ruckus over the Adani issue.

In a statement in the House, Union minister V K Singh corrected the answer to a starred question on behalf of his cabinet colleague Jyotiraditya Scindia given in Rajya Saha on February 6 regarding net loss incurred by the aviation industry.

Several Congress MPs were in the Well while other Opposition members were on their feet.

When Union minister Hardeep Singh Puri was making a listed statement, Opposition members raised the pitch of their sloganeering, apparently asking him to apologise for his remarks against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

However, he could not announce his decision on the suspension notices as slogans continued.

The Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order (Fifth Amendment) Bill, 2022, and the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order (Third Amendment) Bill, 2022 were listed for passage during the day.

While congratulating the women boxers, Dhankhar expressed his extreme happiness at the show of women power.
