The government’s three bills providing a legal framework for the removal of prime minister, chief ministers, and ministers, brought just before the conclusion of the Session also met with protests from the Opposition.The bill that proposes removal of these office bearers on arrest for 30 consecutive days on serious charges, sent tempers flaring in Lok Sabha, where copies of the bills were torn and flung.Members of the ruling and opposition alliances came face-to-face when Shah moved to introduce the bills.The three proposed legislatures were then referred to a joint committee of Parliament.As the frequent disruptions overshadowed legislative business, the Lok Sabha Secretariat said the House lost over 84 hours to forced adjournments, the highest in the 18th Lok Sabha constituted in June last year after the general election.Despite repeated disruptions, adjournments and walkouts, the government managed to introduce 14 bills and secure passage of 12 key legislations.
