Deadlock in Parliament unfortunate, says Mayawati

Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati on Thursday termed the deadlock in Parliament between the government and the opposition over the Pegasus snooping row and other issues as unfortunate. "Whatever happened in the country's Parliament and its upper house Rajya Sabha due to the deadlock between the government and the opposition in the last few days is very unfortunate," she said.

"In my long parliamentary life, I have many times seen fierce conflict, tension and intense protests between the ruling party and the opposition but have never seen such a scene in Parliament," the BSP chief added.

Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were on Wednesday adjourned sine die, two days ahead of schedule, bringing to an end a stormy Monsoon session that saw 20 bills being passed amid relentless protests by the opposition over the Pegasus snooping allegations and farm laws.
