"Anguished, Couldn't Sleep": Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman's 1-Day Fast | Read
Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman Harivansh has declared a one-day fast till tomorrow, expressing anguish over opposition attacks in parliament during the vote on the government's farm bills. Harivansh announced his fast shortly after he met eight Rajya Sabha opposition members protesting on the lawns in the parliament complex and offered them tea, a gesture that the parliamentarians snubbed. The eight members were suspended yesterday over the unprecedented drama in the Rajya Sabha over the farm bills on Sunday, when Harivansh was chairing the proceedings.
