Both houses of Parliament were adjourned till 12 noon after opposition members disrupted the proceedings demanding a joint parliamentary committee probe into the fraud-allegation-triggered rout in Adani Group company stocks.

In the Lok Sabha, soon after the House met, opposition members, including those from the Congress and Bharat Rashtra Samithi, were on their feet seeking to know the status of their demand for a probe into the tanking of the Adani Group scrips and sought a probe into the business practices of the corporate giant. Speaker Om Birla appealed them to go back to their seats and participate in the debate.

In the Rajya Sabha proceedings were adjourned till 12 noon on Tuesday as Opposition parties protested, demanding a discussion in the House on allegations of fraud against the Adani Group.

Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar said he had received notices for suspension of scheduled business by the Congress, CPI-M, AAP, TRS and CPI. However, he did not accept the notices saying they were not in order.
This led to protests by several opposition MPs.
The chairman then adjourned the proceedings till 12 noon.
