Fuel price hike: Rajya Sabha adjourned amid ruckus
NEW DELHI: Rajya Sabha was adjourned till noon amid ruckus over the rejection of Congress leader Shaktisinh Gohil’s adjournment motion over the fuel price increase.
M Venkaiah Naidu, the Rajya Sabha chairman, said the notice under Rule 267 is not admitted and the matter can be discussed during the demand for grants of ministries concerned. “This is not the way. It will not go on record.” Naidu said as the House was adjourned amid slogans against the fuel price rise.
All adjournment motions during the ongoing Budget Session have been rejected. Such motions seek to set aside all scheduled business to urgently discuss an issue.
