New Delhi: There will be no Question Hour, a curtailed Zero Hour and no private members’ bills during the upcoming monsoon session of Parliament, the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha secretariats have decided, prompting opposition leaders to accuse the government of trying to “murder the democracy” in the name of the COVID-19 pandemic and of reducing “Parliament to a notice board”.
In separate notifications, the two secretariats also said there will be no breaks as well during the monsoon session to be held from September 14 to October 1.
Both Houses will function on Saturdays and Sundays as well. (PTI)
