Meanwhile, the Rajya Sabha had been adjourned till 11 am on Wednesday. The Lok Sabha will also re-convene at 11 am on Wednesday.

The Upper House was adjourned on Tuesday morning as well, shortly after it had commenced, amid Opposition MPs demanding the revocation of the suspension of 12 MPs.

Earlier on Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had attended Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) parliamentary party meet. Union Ministers Pralhad Joshi, Jitendra Singh, Arjun Ram Meghwal, and other BJP leaders were also present at the meeting.

Referring to the suspension of 12 MPs, Joshi, after the meeting, was quoted as saying, "We explained why they had to be suspended. The country has witnessed whatever took place. It's on record. If they apologise even today, we're ready to withdraw the suspension."
