New Delhi: Rajya Sabha on Friday failed to transact any significant business, except for the introduction of a bill to make insult to the national song Vande Mataram a criminal offence, as the first week of the Monsoon Session was virtually a washout amid uproar by the opposition over the NEET paper leak issue and demand for Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation.
The House was adjourned within minutes of assembly till 12 noon after Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge sought to raise the issue of lathicharge on students who are protesting against the paper leak and pressing for the resignation of Pradhan.
