Rajya Sabha adjourns following death of BJP MP | The Rajya Sabha was adjourned on Monday for the day without conducting any business following the death of sitting BJP member Suryakantabhai Acharya. The House, which was to have its last sitting
of the Winter Session today will meet on Tuesday. Soon after the Upper House met
for the day, Chairman Hamid Ansari announced the passing away of Acharya, who
represented Gujarat from August 2005. The House then observed two-minute silence
for the departed leader before adjourning for the day. Acharya passed away early
this morning at his residence in Junagadh. Acharya (80) was in a critical condition
for the last four days due to age-related ailments. He had served at various state
level posts in the Gujarat BJP. |
