										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Congress blasted the administration on Sunday for the absence of the Rajya Sabha Chairman, Lok Sabha Speaker, and ministers from the traditional celebration commemorating Jawaharlal Nehru&#8217;s birth anniversary.</p>
<p>Jairam Ramesh, a Congress Rajya Sabha MP, claimed in a tweet that the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha and the Speaker of the Lok Sabha were both absent from the event, which he described as &#8220;unusual.&#8221;</p>
<p>He tweeted: “Extraordinary scene today in Parliament at the traditional function to mark the birth anniversary of those whose portraits adorn the Central Hall. Speaker Lok Sabha was absent. Chairman Rajya Sabha absent. Not a single Minister present. Can it get more atrocious than this?”</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The Monsoon session Parliament began on a bitter note with the Opposition creating an uproar and preventing Prime Minister Narendra Modi from introducing his newly-inducted Union Minister to the House. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">As the disruptions continued despite repeated pleas by the Speaker to maintain decorum, Lok Sabha was adjourned till 3.30pm , while Rajya Sabha was adjourned till 3 pm. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Criticising the Opposition for not allowing PM Modi to introduce the new ministers, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said such a thing was happening for the first time in his 24 years of parliamentary career.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">“I would like to urge all the MPs and all the parties to ask the most difficult and sharpest questions in the Houses but should also allow the Government to respond, in a disciplined environment. This will boost democracy, strengthen people’s trust and improve the pace of development,” PM Modi told media persons in the Parliament House Complex. </span></p>
