“I have assured you that adequate time will be given to everyone to participate in the debate. If we waste House's time like this, it will serve no purpose. Make use of the given opportunity,” the Speaker said.
Asking the legislators that they “must go back” to their seats, Manohar reminded them that they had even given up the Question Hour to enable debate on the draft Bill.
Amidst the slogan-shouting, the Speaker rejected the adjournment motions moved by TDP and YSRC on the state bifurcation issue and by CPI on the Palem bus mishap in which 44 persons were charred to death.
As the agitating members showed no mood to let the House run, the Speaker adjourned it for an hour.
Normalcy did not restore when the House reassembled after more than two hours, leading to the second adjournment for one more hour.
But subsequently things fell in place as the TDP relented and agreed to participate in the debate.
