Congress Calls Delay in Proroguing Lok Sabha After Sine Die 'Abnormal'
· India · The Hindu
The Congress party has questioned the unusual 10-day delay in proroguing the Lok Sabha after its adjournment sine die during the Monsoon session. Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge raised the issue, asking if Home Minister Amit Shah is still trying to secure a two-thirds majority for December. The Congress and Opposition parties demanded clarity on the delay, suggesting it might be linked to political maneuvering. Typical practice involves prorogation soon after adjournment, and the Congress seeks to highlight irregularities.
Why it matters
This affects parliamentary procedure and could indicate political intentions, possibly influencing power dynamics ahead of key legislative moves and the December session.
