The opposition will boycott the work of Rajya Sabha until three key demands, including the revocation of the suspension of eight members, are met, Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad told the upper house today as the drama continued for the third consecutive day. The suspended members continued their sit-in on the lawns of the parliamentary complex after spending the night there in protest. They were suspended due to Sunday’s unprecedented chaos and “unruly behavior” in Rajya Sabha when two controversial agricultural bills were passed. Rajya Sabha’s vice-president is at the heart of opposition protests; their motion of censure against him was rejected yesterday by President Venkaiah Naidu.
