Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha proceedings were adjourned till 11 am Friday amid noisy scenes with opposition members raising various issues. Opposition members rushed to the Well raising slogans as soon as Speaker Om Birla welcomed a Parliamentary delegation from Zambia and started Question Hour.

The speaker objected to the noisy scenes and asked the members not to make unsubstantiated claims. As the slogan shouting continued, the Speaker adjourned proceedings till 2 pm.

Opposition parties have been seeking to raise the Adani issue, Chinese transgressions at the border and role of Governors in states. The Opposition also criticised the Budget on Wednesday, accusing the Centre of doing little to address rising prices, widening economic disparities, and unemployment.

The Budget session of the Parliament began on Tuesday with the maiden address of President Murmu to the joint sitting of both Houses and the tabling of the Economic Survey.

The first part of the session ends on February 14 and the second part will begin from March 12 and continue till April 6. The government plans to bring around 36 bills during the session.
