Parliament Budget Session Live: Congress MP Rajni Patil's Suspension Will Continue, Says Jagdeep Dhankar In Rajya Sabha

Background

Parliament Budget Session Highlights: Hello and welcome to ABP Live Parliament Budget Session Live Blog. Follow this space for the latest updates on the second leg of the Budget Session of the Parliament. The Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha will resume today after being adjourned on April 3 on a stormy note following continued demand by the Opposition for a Joint Parliamentary Committee probe on Hindenburg Research's report on Adani Group alleging stock manipulation. 

The Opposition also demanded a discussion on the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi from Lok Sabha after his conviction in the 2019 defamation case by a Surat court for his 'Modi-surname' remark made during a poll campaign in Karnataka. Meanwhile, Lakshadweep MP Mohammad Faizal's Lok Sabha membership was revoked by Lok Sabha Secretariat after the Kerala High Court stayed his conviction in a criminal case. 

Amid uproar by the Opposition, The Competition (Amendment) Bill, 2022 was passed in Lok Sabha without a debate. The bill aims to bring more flexibility, agency, and accountability to the Competition Commission of India (CCI). 

While, environment minister Bhupender Yadav introduced the Forest (Conservation) Amendment Bill, 2023 in Lok Sabha. The bill aims to amend the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980.

Minister of State Nityanand Rai informed the Rajya Sabha that the FCRA licence of 18 NGOs from 2020 to 2022 has been cancelled by the Centre. 

After being disqualified from Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi had arrived in the Parliament for the first time on Wednesday to attend the meeting of Congress MPs from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha at the Congress Parliamentary Party office. 

The Congress leader also met with Shiv Sena Uddhav Thackeray faction leader Sanjay Raut days after the party expressed its disappointment over Rahul Gandhi's Savarkar remark which made Uddhav Thackeray skip a dinner meet of the Opposition at Mallikarjun Kharge's residence. 

The Opposition has been creating a ruckus and stalling the proceedings of both Houses of Parliament demanding a JPC on the Adani row.
