Day 5 of the Parliament Winter Session began at 11 am and so did the ruckus, resulting in the adjournment of both houses. While Lok Sabha has been adjourned till 12, Rajya Sabha adjourned for the day.
The Members of Parliament had planned to move motions on various healthcare issues. This includes the election of members to serve three AIIMS hospitals and NIMHANS, Bengaluru, among others. The questions to be tabled in both Houses are centered around healthcare, including the role of Anganwadi Workers (AWWs) and Anganwadi Helpers (AWHs) and sickle cell anaemia. The ongoing violence in Bangladesh, triggered by violence against Hindus, will also be in focus.
Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Nanded MP Ravindra Chavan were sworn in on Thursday. Pandemonium followed in the House as the Opposition resorted to sloganeering and protests, demanding the discussion of various issues, including the violence witnessed in Uttar Pradesh's Sambhal during a mosque survey.
The winter session of the Parliament began on November 25 but faced early disruptions, resulting in the adjournment of both Houses on most days without any discussions.
