The winter session of the Parliament, which began on November 29 has witnessed disruptions by Opposition over the suspension of MPs from the Upper House for the remaining session over alleged unruly conduct in the last monsoon session.
Opposition leaders have been frequently sitting at the Mahatma Gandhi statue in Parliament premises demanding revocation of suspension.
