Coordinated and “designed” disruptions lower the dignity of the proceedings of the House, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla said on Sunday while inaugurating a new building of the Assam Legislative Assembly.
Mr. Birla’s comment came amid the ongoing disruptions in Parliament over the Opposition’s demand that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should speak on the Manipur conflict.
Though the government has managed to push through a few Bills in the Lower House in the din, normal functioning of both the Houses has been paralysed over Opposition’s insistence that Mr. Modi first speak on the Manipur violence that has been going on for nearly three months now.
