New Delhi: Due to disruptions, both the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha have been adjourned for the day on Wednesday. The meeting of the Opposition parties was held at 10 am ahead of the Parliament session and it resolved to up the ante inside the House demanding a Joint Parliamentary Committee probe into the allegations against the Adani Group. Both Houses of the Parliament reconvened on Wednesday at 11 am after being adjourned on Monday.
The second part of the Budget Session 2023 has been disrupted mainly due to the demands put forward by the Opposition for the JPC probe on the Adani issue and there was uproar from the treasury benches which was seeking an apology from the disqualified MP Rahul Gandhi.
