Indian Parliament adjourned till noon again

New Delh : Indian Parliament went without its Question Hour for the 15th consecutive day on Thursday as the opposition demand for a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) probe into the 2G spectrum allocation saw the adjournment of the house again till noon.

Soon after the lower house (Lok Sabha) began its session at 11 am, the opposition lawmakers from BJP, Shiv Sena and AIADMK shouted for a JPC probe like every day and trooped into the well, as Speaker Meira Kumar had no option but to adjourn the house rented by slogans.

The Rajya Sabha was no different and it was adjourned too by chairman Hamid Ansari till noon.

The All-party meeting on Tuesday failed to break the logjam that has almost deadlocked the Indian Parliament over the 2G scam.

The Opposition stuck to its demand for a JPC while the government mooted a Supreme Court administered CBI probe into the scam that has more grist to its mill now with the release of Radia tapes pointing at corporate lobbying to influence ministerial appointments.
