Lok Sabha adjourned sine die but not prorogued even after 10 days, termed 'abnormal' by Congress
GK and monthly revision
‘Abnormal’ that Lok Sabha has not been prorogued 10 days after sine die, Congress says
Congress leader Jairam Ramesh criticized the delay in proroguing Lok Sabha 10 days after its sine die adjournment, terming it 'abnormal'. He questioned if the delay relates to Home Minister Amit Shah attempting to gather numbers for a constitutional amendment Bill on delimitation. Prorogation formally ends a parliamentary session, and such delays are rare, raising constitutional and procedural concerns. This issue is significant for polity preparation, especially regarding parliamentary procedures, constitutional amendments, and delimitation processes.
