Share
After the Parliament was adjourned sine die on Friday, a day before the scheduled end of the session, the Opposition members in the INDIA bloc are planning to move an impeachment motion against Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar over his ‘conduct’ as the chairman of the Rajya Sabha. The development comes after multiple adjournments marred the Rajya Sabha proceedings due to Opposition protests and a verbal spat between INDIA bloc members and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankar during the Budget Session of Parliament that ended on Friday. The Parliament session, which started on July 22, was supposed to end on August 12.
