"House Will Conduct Disruption-Free Proceedings,": RS Chairman Naidu

RS experienced Disruption-free proceedings after 41 sittings

New Delhi: Talking notes from the undergoing Parliamentary session, the House will resume discussion on the motion of thanks on the President's address that was initiated by a BJP MP.

The House will start with obituary references to the passing away of ex-Rajya Sabha Member Jamana Devi Barupal.

Rajya Sabha Chairman Venkaiah Naidu said, "Yesterday, we had disruption-free proceedings during debate on President's Address. I hope it will continue in future."

After nearly a year of 41 sittings spread over four sessions, the Rajya Sabha had a disruption-free business on Wednesday.

Delighted to watch "quality debate", Mr Naidu said, "After a long time, Rajya Sabha witnessed disruption-free proceedings yesterday. I was delighted to watch quality debates on the Motion of Thanks to the President."

Four reports of department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Transport, Tourism and Culture; one report of the Joint Committee on Offices of Profit; and one report of the Department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Energy on Financial constraints in Renewable Energy Sector will be tabled in the Rajya Sabha on today.

On Wednesday, Congress leader and MP Rahul Gandhi had launched a blistering attack on the Prime Minister on foreign policy, accusing him of "bringing China and Pakistan" together. In a speech slamming the BJP-government, Mr Gandhi said that the country has been surrounded by adversaries on all sides and is isolated in the region.

BJP MP Nishikant Dubey gave a 'Breach of Privilege' and 'Contempt of the House' notice in Lok Sabha against Rahul Gandhi for "inciting" people by his speech in the Parliament yesterday.

In his letter to the Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, the BJP MP alleged that the comments made by Wayanad MP about "two India's" yesterday should be categorised as "Contempt Of The House" and also said that the Congress leader used "unparliamentary" terminology.
