The government has agreed for a discussion in the Rajya Sabha on rising prices of essential commodities on August 2, as the Opposition Congress and other parties disrupted proceedings over the arrest of Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut and other issues.
When the House re-assembled at noon for Question Hour, the Opposition parties continued with their protests as several MPs reached the well of House and raised slogans against the Central dispensation. However, Bhubaneswar Kalita, who was in the Chair, went ahead with the Question Hour.
