Lok Sabha faces longest adjournment in decades as 46-day break continues

The Lok Sabha is currently experiencing its longest adjournment in several decades, with the house remaining closed for 46 consecutive days. This extended break surpasses previous lengthy recesses and represents a significant pause in parliamentary proceedings.

The extended adjournment has drawn attention to parliamentary functioning and the frequency of such breaks. The last comparable adjournment dates back to the Bofors scandal period, indicating the rarity of such prolonged suspensions of house business.
