The proceedings in both Houses were adjourned on Tuesday following protests by AIADMK members
The Congress, NCP, Left and TDP members resorted to unique style to demonstrate their support for the No Confidence Motion and several members carried a placard each with numbers inserted on it. However, the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and AIADMK members came close to the podium and started protesting.
The Lok Sabha again failed to take up notices for no-confidence motion against the government after Speaker Sumitra Mahajan said the House was not in order and adjourned proceedings, amid noisy protests over various issues.
As the disturbances continued, Speaker Mahajan said she can not take up the notice for the motion on trust vote and adjourned the House for the day amid loud protests from opposition benches. He questioned how the House and other parties could be helpless in the matter. Ever since the second half of the Budget session commenced from March 5, the Parliament has been adjourned over vociferous protests from the opposition parties over a range of issues like Punjab National Bank scam, Cauvery water board and Andhra Pradesh special category status. Members from the Congress, the Left, the TDP and some other parties stood up holding the blue placards, apparently to show her that there were 80 members supporting the no-confidence motion. This is the seventh consecutive day when the motion on no confidence could not be taken up due to protests.
Amid the din, Congress floor leader Mr Kharge said, "Madam, you require 50 Members to allow the No Confidence Motion, there are now more than 50 members".
The Speaker, however, contended that she could not do the headcount amid unruly scenes in the House.

However, AIADMK members remained standing and sought intervention of Prime Minister Narendra Modi who was present in the House.
"We will also participate in the deliberations", the TRS leader said.
Members from treasury benches too remained in the House for quite some time.
As AIADMK members did not relent, the House was adjourned for the day even as the entire opposition expressed surprise over the abrupt adjournment.
