New Delhi, March 9 : The Rajya Sabha was adjourned for the second straight day on Tuesday after the opposition again pressed their demand for a discussion on fuel price hike, which was rejected by the chair.
Congress deputy leader in the Rajya Sabha, Anand Sharma, objected to the government's move to take up bills, saying, "This House has a tradition that until the pending matters are resolved, no government business can be undertaken."
Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad then requested the opposition to allow a discussion on the Arbitration Bill, but the Leader of Opposition, Mallikarjun Kharge, insisted that the issue is important since it concerns the common people, as everyone is affected due to the rise in the prices of auto fuel and LPG cylinders.
