New Delhi, December 9, 2024 – The Winter Session of Parliament witnessed high drama on its 10th day as both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were adjourned until 2 PM following intense disruptions. The ruckus erupted over allegations linking the Congress party to billionaire George Soros, a controversy that has sparked heated debates both inside and outside the House.
Members of the ruling BJP raised the issue, accusing the Congress of supporting Soros, who has been critical of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and India’s government policies on various platforms. BJP MPs demanded clarifications from Congress leaders, leading to loud protests and counter-arguments from the opposition benches. The uproar resulted in repeated disruptions during the morning session.
Opposition parties, including the Congress, dismissed the allegations as baseless and accused the BJP of diverting attention from pressing national issues. As the session resumed briefly, chaos ensued, forcing the Speaker to adjourn the proceedings. The controversy is expected to dominate discussions as the session continues, with both sides digging in their heels.
