Congressman Gaurav Gogoi brought up the Manipur problem and claimed that the Center is attempting to use Soros as a cloak in order to conceal its failure. Notices to move a no-confidence vote against Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar have also been submitted by opposition MPs.
Shortly after the Rajya Sabha met again at 12 p.m. on Wednesday (after the initial adjournment), it was adjourned for the day. As the opposition and treasury benches exchanged accusations over the impeachment notice against the House Chairman and Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar, the pre-noon session adjourned without any business being completed. Protests soon followed, and the chairman decided to postpone the meeting until 12 p.m. Protests on a number of problems started in the House when it reconvened at 12 p.m., and the day’s proceedings were adjourned.
The Lok Sabha passed the Railways (Amendment) Bill on Wednesday. The House also initiated a discussion on the Disaster Management (Amendment) Bill, 2024 but proceedings were adjourned early after AITC MP Kalyan Banerjee alleged inadequate response from the central government to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Speaker of the Lok Sabha Om Birla has been urged by the Congress to look into the party’s complaints over “defamatory remarks” made by BJP member Nishikant Dubey against Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi. Following the Speaker’s announcement of his decision, the party declared that it was “keen” to take part in the parliamentary proceedings.
