After the first adjournment at 11 a m, as the two houses met again at noon, opposition members led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) were on their feet once again shouting slogans demanding a JPC.

Amid the din, a bill for declaring the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro-Sciences, Bangalore, an institute of national importance was introduced in the Rajya Sabha by health minister Ghulam Nabi Azad before the house was adjourned for the day.

Similar scenes were witnessed in the Lok Sabha, leading to its adjournment for the day.
