Rajya Sabha proceedings have been adjourned till 2 pm today amid sloganeering after BJP president JP Nadda attacked the Congress for questioning the ruling given by Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar and the party's alleged nexus with US businessman George Soros.

Mr Nadda, the leader of the House, attacked Mallikarjun Kharge, the Congress president and the Leader of the Opposition in the House, for holding a press conference and criticising the Chairman.

Mr Kharge on Wednesday said the opposition was forced to table the no-confidence motion against Mr Dhankhar because he is the "biggest disruptor" of the Upper House. "His actions have hurt the dignity of India," Mr Kharge said.

Today, the government has listed three bills for final consideration and passing in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.

“Chairman's ruling cannot be questioned”: JP Nadda attacks Mallikarjun Kharge
The country wants to know the relationship between former Congress president Sonia Gandhi and US billionaire George Soros, BJP president JP Nadda said in Rajya Sabha today as he slammed Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge for his remarks against Vice-President and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar. 

The Congress-led Opposition has brought a no-confidence against the Upper House Chairman.

Defending the Chair, Mr Nadda, who is Leader of the House in Rajya Sabha, said, "The Chair cannot be questioned with regard to the admissibility or for other purposes. The Chairman's ruling cannot be questioned or criticised. To do so is contempt of the House or Chairman."

Mr Nadda said Mr Kharge has alleged that he is not given the opportunity to speak in the House. "You have been called to the chamber, and letters have been written by the Chair to the Leader of the Opposition, but the LoP denied it and he has not participated in meetings. This shows your interest in democratic processes."

Parliament Winter Session Live Updates: Why Opposition is protesting against Rajya Sabha Chairman
The opposition was forced to table the no-confidence motion against Rajya Sabha Chair Jagdeep Dhankhar because he is "biggest disruptor" of the Upper House, Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge said on Wednesday. 

"His actions have hurt the dignity of India," Mr Kharge said, as he also stressed there is no "personal fight" against the Rajya Sabha Chairman.

"We have been compelled to take this step. We have already given a notice. The opposition is here to speak, standing together, on this sensitive issue. I am sad to say the Chairman left us with no option. For three years, he gave us neither time nor space to raise critical issues."

"We expect protection from the Chairperson... but he keeps gesturing to ruling party MPs to speak. Who will listen to the opposition when the Chair himself defends the government?"

In brief remarks to reporters, Mr Kharge also said the Chair "tries to insult opposition leaders" and "indulges in schooling MPs like a headmaster". "He is working like the government's spokesperson... the biggest disruptor of the Rajya Sabha is the Chairperson..."

"... (but the) notice for is not about personal grievances or political battles," he said.
