Due to opposition MPs raising slogans and creating a ruckus over various issues in the Lok Sabha, the House was adjourned within minutes of convening.
For the second consecutive week, opposition members have been submitting adjournment motion notices in the House, seeking a discussion on issues including the attack on students during the Delhi protest, irregularities in donations to the Ram temple, and the Mekedatu dam.
Meanwhile, the ‘Prevention of Insults to National Honour (Amendment) Bill’, which seeks to make insulting the national song ‘Vande Mataram’ a punishable offence, was introduced in the Lok Sabha yesterday.
Following this, opposition MPs strongly condemned the bill being passed by voice vote without any debate.
In this situation, as soon as the House convened today and opposition MPs raised slogans, Speaker Om Birla instructed that Question Hour be allowed to continue.
However, since opposition MPs continued to create a ruckus, Om Birla announced that the House proceedings would be adjourned until 12 noon.
