NEW DELHI: It was quite obvious on Thursday morning itself that the first day of Parliament’s monsoon session will get disrupted over the ongoing ethnic violence in the northeastern state of Manipur. At least 12 MPs from eight opposition parties submitted notice under Rule 267 demanding suspension of business in the upper house.
The 12 MPs who submitted suspension of business notice under Rule 267 of the Rajya Sabha included leader of opposition Mallikarjun Kharge, Pramod Tiwari, Ranjeet Ranjan, Nasir Hussain and Imran Pratapgarhi of the Congress; Priyanka Chaturvedi of Shiv Sena (UBT); Derek O’Brien of TMC, Sanjay Singh of AAP, Tiruchi Siva of DMK, Manoj Jha of RJD, Elamaram Kareem of CPM and Binoy Viswam of CPI.
