Rajya Sabha again adjourned over price rise
IANS
The Times of India
Wednesday, February 24, 2010
Indraprasth aka New Delhi - The Rajya Sabha was adjourned for the
second successive day on Wednesday with the opposition demanding a
discussion on rising prices of essential commodities under a rule
that requires voting.
The trouble began when the house assembled at 11 a.m. with S S
Ahluwalia and other members of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)
demanding that the discussion be held under rules 167 and 168 and not
as a short duration discussion as the government had agreed to.
A discussion under the two rules requires not only voting but also
that the sense of the house on the topic under discussion be
recorded.
Chairman Hamid Ansari's repeated pleas for letting question hour
proceed fell on deaf ears, even as Minister of State for
Parliamentary Affairs Prithviraj Chavan stressed that the government
had accepted the opposition's demand on Monday for a short duration
discussion, a stance that was modified on Tuesday.
"We are ready for a discussion. Let question hour be suspended and
let the discussion begin right now," Chavan said amidst the din.
With the opposition in no mood to relent, Ansari adjourned the house
till 12 noon.
