Rajya Sabha Chairman Radhakrishnan adjourned the House till Monday after rejecting a Rule 267 notice from Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge. Opposition members continued sloganeering, demanding the resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah and raising the alleged Ayodhya donation scam. Chairman Radhakrishnan said rulings on Rule 267 had been given on several occasions and no such notices would be allowed. Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan accused the Opposition of "street politics" and showing disrespect to democratic institutions. "India is watching them and the country will not forget this act," he said. Despite the uproar, some BJP members like Mahendra Bhatt and Ryaga Krishnaiah were allowed to raise local issues. The House will next meet on Monday at 11 am.
