The India — Lok Sabha experienced repeated adjournments on Monday as opposition members protested, demanding a debate on the West Asia situation. These disruptions prevented the House from taking up a resolution seeking the removal of Speaker Om Birla. Jagadambika Pal, who chaired the proceedings, accused the opposition of holding the House 'hostage' and wasting public funds, stating that approximately Rs 9 crore is spent daily on running the House. Pal described the opposition's behavior as 'immature and irresponsible' and alleged a 'political agenda' behind their actions. Om Birla was not presiding over the House while the no-confidence motion against him remained pending.
