This comes as both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were adjourned till 2 PM minutes after they resumed proceedings at 12 noon on Monday as the opposition shouted 'Modi Sarkar Shame Shame', 'PM Modi Jawab Do', 'Manipur Wants Justice' slogans. Notably, the first two days of the monsoon session last week saw a similar ruckus leading to nearly zero functioning of Parliament.
Meanwhile, Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh has been suspended from Rajya Sabha for the remaining duration of the Parliament's monsoon session for 'obstructing' the proceedings of the House. Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar said that Sanjay Singh is suspended for the entire session for obstructing the proceedings of the House even after repeated refusals. This comes as Parliament witnessed massive chaos amid sloganeering over the Manipur issue.
Reacting to it, AAP said that its legal team will look into the matter. Delhi Minister Saurabh Bhardwaj said, "If Sanjay Singh is suspended for raising his voice for the truth, then we will not be upset. Our legal team will look into this matter, but this is unfortunate"
