Parliament Winter Session: Lok Sabha adjourned till 12 pm

The Lok Sabha proceedings were adjourned until 12 pm on Friday as opposition members continued to raise slogans and disrupt the session for the ninth consecutive day.

Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla appealed to members to ensure order and cooperation during the ongoing winter session. Despite his repeated calls, disruptions dominated the proceedings.

Before adjourning the session, Birla urged members to uphold the dignity and decorum of the House. Addressing the members amid the uproar, he asked, “Do you want to let the question hour continue?” He emphasized that the functioning of the House must reflect parliamentary standards.

The winter session has seen frequent interruptions, with opposition parties vocally pressing for debates on various pressing issues. The Speaker’s call for adherence to parliamentary norms comes amid rising concerns over the productivity of the ongoing session.

Meanwhile, opposition MPs including Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra held a protest over the Adani matter, at the Parliament premises in the national capital on Friday.

The first session of the winter Parliament commenced on November 25, with both Houses getting adjourned fairly early due to disruptions. The winter session will go on till December 20.
