Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury stated that, because the no-confidence motion against the government has been accepted under rule 198 in the Lok Sabha, so a discussion should happen on Manipur immediately.
"The government doesn't want the Speaker of the House to ask them questions," he alleged.

Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi alleged that the Opposition does not take part in the discussions peacefully and does not cooperate to pass any bill in Parliament.
"We are ready to take constructive suggestions from them, but suddenly they brought the no-confidence motion. We will have discussions on the no-confidence motion as and when it is required and since we have the numbers, we do not have a problem," he told news agency ANI.
"If they want the truth (regarding Manipur) to come out, there is no better floor than this," he added.

Rajya Sabha was adjourned till Monday, 31 July after the chairperson Jagdeep Dhankar warned TMC MP Derek O'Brien for his conduct in the House. "It has become your habit to engage into theatrics. You rise every time, it is your prerogative. The minimum you can exemplify is to respect the Chair. You rise every time whenever I say something,” he said.
