Sacredness of House destroyed: VP Venkaiah Naidu on Oppositions uproar in Rajya Sabha
Vice President Venkaiah Naidu, who also happens to be the Rajya Sabha Chair as by law established, on Wednesday, said that he would take strict action against those MPs from the Opposition, who crated rucks and uproar in the Upper House on Tuesday.
On Wednesday morning, Naidu got emotional while addressing the House on the uproar and rucks created by Opposition MPs over farm laws and Pegasus snooping case.
On Tuesday, when Rajya Sabha was in order, Opposition MPs stood up on benches, raised slogans and staged protests against the Centre over farm laws and Pegasus. The intensity of the protest was such that the Chairman had to adjourn the house.
All sacredness of this House was destroyed yesterday when some members sat on the tables and some climbed on the tables, said Naidu addressing Rajya Sabha.
Reportedly, Home Minister Amit Shah, Leader of the House Piyush Goyal, and other BJP MPs met Naidu to discuss the further course of action on Opposition MPs, who disturbed parliamentary proceedings.
After yesterdays incident, the rucks still continued today and the Upper House was adjourned. Moreover, Speaker Om Birla adjourned Lok Sabha sine die over uproar created by Opposition.
Om Birla spoke to media persons today and expressed his concern over the productivity of the parliament. I always expect the MPs to maintain the dignity of the House. There have been debates, agreements and disagreements in the House but its dignity was never lowered, said Birla.
