As the house prepared itself for the Monsoon Session, hoping a usual quite drizzle before the business gets in order, a storm was set in the Parliament today.
The Parliament, on Monday, mourned the loss of lives in terrorist attacks, natural calamities, and the sitting and former members who passed away recently. It was expected that the business will get in order today.
On the agenda were the following:
The proceedings began with Mayawati accusing the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh of "dividing the society on the basis of caste and religion." BJP members objected to her but she on to narrate the Saharanpur unrest, where a section of Dalits, she claimed were denied permission to conduct rally to observe Ambedkar Day. Her speech was cut short and she objected to it.
As of now the proceedings remain adjourned amid the raucous.
