Minutes after the Upper House met for the day, the Opposition tried to raise its demand for a discussion on Manipur under Rule 267. Goyal said there has been a rise in the assault on women in Rajasthan and they are not safe in the state. He suggested that just as a Short Duration Discussion under Rule 176 on the situation in Manipur has been accepted by the Chair, another one should be held under the same rule on Rajasthan.
