Lok Sabha adjourned till 1 pm amid Opposition uproar over SIR

New Delhi July 28 (UNI) The Lok Sabha was adjourned till 1 pm, after members of the Opposition parties created a ruckus demanding discussion on Special Intensive Revision (SIR).

When the House reconvened at 12 PM, the presiding officer, Krishna Prasad Tenneti, called for the laying of papers on the table. Meanwhile, protesting Opposition members entered the Well of the House, holding placards that read “No SIR” and shouting slogans such as “We want discussion on SIR.”

Amid the commotion, papers were laid on the table.

Speaker Om Birla urged the protesting members to return to their seats, reminding them that the House was scheduled to take up a discussion on Operation Sindoor.

However, the sloganeering continued. Objecting to the conduct of the Opposition members, the Speaker said, “First, you ask for a debate on Operation Sindoor, then you come into the Well of the House. If you truly wish to participate in the discussion, please go back to your seats.”

He further asked, “Do you want to discuss Operation Sindoor or not? Protesting in the Well of the House does not lead to a discussion. The discussion will happen only when you are seated in your chairs.”

Despite repeated appeals, the Opposition members continued their protest, prompting the Speaker to adjourn the House till 1 PM.

Earlier in the day, when the House convened, it was adjourned till 12 PM amid similar protests by the Opposition.
