The Opposition's protest against the suspension of MPs in Rajya Sabha rages on. Rajya Sabha MP from Nagaland KG Kenye will raise the issue of the deaths in the firing incident on Saturday in the state's Mon district. Apart from this, the opposition is seeking discussions on a number of issues, including Covid-19, compensation for farmers, China, price rises, and floods. The government has said it is exercising caution in resuming international flights amid concerns over the Omicron variant of coronavirus.
"The government is asking for an apology, whereas I believe that it owes an apology for passing the bills, and for snatching away the right to discuss a bill. The government owes an apology to the people of this nation," said Rajya Sabha MP Sougata Roy.
