A decision to include the issue of Price rise for discussion in both the houses of the parliament has been made in the third week of the Monsoon session.

The issue is to be discussed on Monday in the Lower House under rule 193, followed by a discussion in the Upper House on Tuesday under rule 176.

Shiv Sena MP Vinayak Raut, along with Congress MP Manish Tiwari, proposed the discussion on the same in the Lok Sabha.

The notice in the Rajya Sabha was given by Fauzia Khan, NCP MP.

The sources said, “A discussion on price rise is likely to be listed under rule 176 in the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday.”

This is following the ongoing protests in parliament by the opposition over the issues, including inflation, which led to the suspension of 27 MPs for creating a ruckus.

Nirmala Sitaraman, the finance minister, will be answering in both houses.

Agnipath aschemr for the armed forces, unemployment are some of the other issues the protesting MPs have been demanding an explanation on.

For their “unduly behaviour” and “disrupting the sessions,” four Congress MPs, Manickam Tagore, Ramya Haridas, Jothimani, and TN Prathapan, were suspended from the Lok Sabha on July 25.
