New Delhi, July 20

The Lok Sabha proceedings were adjourned for the day amid repeated disruptions by opposition members.

Earlier, the House was adjourned till 2 pm and later till 3 pm amid ruckus by Opposition members on various issues.

Speaker Om Birla, who asked them to return to their seats, failed to convince them as MPs continued to shout slogans, waving placards around the Well and also before the Chair.

“The government is ready to answer all your questions. Please return to your seats,” Birla said as he adjourned the House till 2 pm barely five minutes into the question hour before only a part of a question could be answered by Minister of State Kailash Choudhary.

Later, Lok Sabha proceedings were adjourned for the second time, till 3 pm, amid continued opposition protest. With PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
