Amid sloganeering by opposition, Lok Sabha proceedings adjourned till 2 pm

New Delhi, Dec 9: Lok Sabha proceedings were on Monday adjourned till 2 pm amid uproar in the House over the alleged George Soros-Congress link and Adani issues.

As soon as the House re-convened at noon, Congress members trooped to the well of the Lok Sabha raising slogans against the government. They were soon joined by Samajwadi Party members.

Congress members were also heard saying that they had submitted notices to move privilege motion against BJP member Nishikant Dubey for attempts to link Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi and former Congress chief Sonia Gandhi with US-based billionaire George Soros-backed outfits allegedly involved in anti-India activities.

‘Modi Sarkar down down’, Modi Sarkar shame shame, we want justice,” opposition members raised slogans as BJP member Sandhya Ray, who was in the chair, took up tabling of parliamentary papers.

Opposition members from the TMC and RJD were seen standing in the aisle and some near their seats in support of the protest.

TMC members, including Saugatha Roy, Kalyan Banerjee and Mahua Moitra, were sitting on their seats.

SP member Dharmendra Yadav also raised the issue of farmers. He was heard saying “Pure desh ka kisan pareshan hai,”

Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi was present in the House during protests.

After the laying of Parliamentary papers, Ray informed the House that the notices given by Congress leaders were under consideration of Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.

As the protests continued, the Chair adjourned the proceedings till 2 pm. (PTI)
