Derek O'Brien, the Rajya Sabha leader from Trinamool Congress, has attributed recent parliamentary disruptions to the government's avoidance strategies, particularly regarding the Special Intensive Revision exercise in Bihar.
The repeated adjournments in both Houses of Parliament were fueled by demands for a debate about this revision of the electoral roll.
The opposition has accused the government of orchestrating these disruptions to dodge important discussions, including issues concerning Bengal, and urged immediate attention to the electoral process in Bihar, which the Election Commission is updating after 22 years.
