“I have received 20 notices under Rule 267,” says Dhankhar, and he rejects them all; The House adjourned until noon due to opposition protests.

Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar said several opposition members demanded a discussion on corruption allegations against Adani Group, violence in Uttar Pradesh’s Sambhal, law and order situation in Manipur, the Ajmer Dargah issue in Rajasthan, the increase in crimes in Delhi, the “atrocities against Hindus”. in Bangladesh and the special program to address the plight of the people of Wayanad.
