Opposition outrage over issues such as the suspension of 12 MPs, farmers' deaths and inflation pervaded Rajya Sabha on Thursday, with several parties including Congress, TMC, NCP, RJD among others staging a walkout from the House.

Meanwhile, the Lok Sabha held a discussion on the COVID-19 pandemic under Rule 193. Discussions under this rule do not involve the introduction of a formal motion before the House. Hence, no voting takes place after discussion on the matters considered under this rule.

At the end of the second day of Winter Session, both Houses were adjourned as opposition leaders continued their condemnation of the suspension notice.

Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were earlier adjourned several times amid the uproar.
