The Rajya Sabha on Monday deferred a short discussion to flag the death of four students - three drowned in the flooded basement of an east Delhi coaching centre on Saturday and a fourth was electrocuted last week. Chairperson Jagdeep Dhankhar said he had received three notices for suspension of regular House business but this was opposed by the Congress, the primary opposition.
"This was conveyed to me by Jairam Ramesh (the Congress' comms chief) in categorical terms."
