Parliament logjam ends; AAP, BRS persist with Adani debate demand

The Hindu  

Ending the four-day logjam in Parliament, most Opposition parties — barring the Aam Aadmi Party and the Bharat Rashtra Samithi — decided to participate in the debate on the motion of thanks to the President, even in the absence of a focused debate on the Hindenburg revelations about the Adani group and its impact on LIC and SBI. In a meeting held on Tuesday morning at the Parliament office of Mallikarjun Kharge, the Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha, AAP MP Sanjay Singh made it clear that his party will persist with demanding a structured debate on the Adani issue and is not willing to participate in usual Parliamentary business. For the same reason we boycotted the President’s address too.” Soon after the Opposition’s meeting, the Congress general secretary for communications Jairam Ramesh tweeted, “Most Opposition parties have decided to participate in Parliamentary proceedings from today and continue to raise their demand for a JPC into the PM-linked Adani Maha Mega Scam.” Morning adjournments Even though the Opposition publicly expressed its willingness to participate in Parliamentary proceedings, both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha failed to function in the first half of the day. For the fourth day in a row, Rajya Sabha chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar rejected the notices moved by 13 Opposition members under Rule 267, seeking a debate on the Adani issue. Question Hour disrupted In the Lok Sabha too, proceedings were disrupted and the House was adjourned till noon after Opposition members demanded a JPC probe into the allegations of fraud made against the Adani Group.
