The Winter Session of Parliament started on Monday but faced disruptions, leading to the adjournment of both Houses for the day. In the Rajya Sabha, proceedings were stalled as Opposition MPs insisted on holding a discussion on the Adani issue.
On Monday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi slammed the opposition, stating those who were rejected by people 80-90 times were trying to control Parliament by resorting to hooliganism for their own political gains. While addressing reporters ahead of the start of the Winter Session of Parliament, Modi said such handful of people did not succeed in their intentions but people of the country observed their actions and punished them at an appropriate time.
Ahead of the starting of Parliament Winter Session, Lok Sabha speaker Om Birla said that the Constitution should be kept away from politics since it remains a social document and a source of social and economic change. Om Birla further said, “The Constitution is our strength. It is our social document. It is because of this Constitution that we have brought about social, and economic changes and have given respect to the deprived, poor and backward people of the society. Today people in the world read the Constitution of India, understand its ideology, and how at that time we exercised the right to vote to all classes, all castes without any discrimination. Therefore, the basic spirit of our Constitution gives us the strength to unite everyone and work together. Isliye Constitution ko politics ke dayre main nahi lana chahiye (This is why Constitution should be kept away from politics)”.
Winter Session of Parliament started on 25th November 2024 and will conclude on 20th December 2024.
