NEW DELHI: Parliament adjourned sine die on Friday with the winter session coming to an end six days ahead of schedule. It was also vice-president Jagdeep Dhankhar’s maiden session as chairperson of the Rajya Sabha. While Dhankhar presided over the Upper House which recorded 102 per cent productivity, his remarks on the judiciary, Congress leader Sonia Gandhi and disruption of business were also notable developments.
After defeating Margaret Alva of the Congress, Dhankhar took over as the 14th vice-president of India and ex-officio chairperson of the Rajya Sabha on August 11, succeeding M Venkaiah Naidu.
