When Lok Sabha proceedings resumed at noon, Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge said his party was ready for a discussion. “But a message has gone out that the Opposition is not ready for discussion. People are distressed, people are in pain and we want to discuss their problems. What we want is that the Prime Minister should be present here. You (Speaker) should allow us the adjournment motion,” he said.
At this, Ananth Kumar said: “If the Opposition offers any constructive suggestion, we will heed to it, implement it. We have launched a campaign against black money, fake currency and corruption and the people of India are supporting Modi.”
Bhartruhari Mahtab (BJD) and Jithender Reddy (TRS), two parties which have not joined the Congress-led protests, favoured early resolution of the impasse for resumption of House proceedings.
