Rajya Sabha adjourned twice amid protest over farm laws

Rajya Sabha was adjourned till 10:30 am on Tuesday amid protest and sloganeering by opposition members on the three new farm laws.

Opposition parties including the Congress, Left, TMC and DMK staged a walkout from the Rajya Sabha after their demand for suspension of business of the day to take up a discussion on more than two-month-old farmers' agitation was rejected by the Chairman.

The opposition parties had given notice under rule 267 calling for the suspension of business of the day to take up discussion on the ongoing agitation by farmers on Delhi borders against three new farm laws.
