The second part of the budget session of Parliament will conclude today. Proceedings in both the Houses of Parliament were disrupted for the 21st consecutive day yesterday amidst continuing protests by the Opposition members.

No significant legislative business could be transacted so far in both the Houses due to stalling of proceedings by the Opposition. This session has seen so far only 25 percent productivity in the Lok Sabha and 35 percent in the Rajya Sabha making it one of the worst sessions in the last one decade.

Data shows that cost of running Parliament per minute is 2.5 lakh rupees. Lack of productivity in the current session is said to have cost the exchequer 190 crore rupees.The second part of the budget session began on 4th of last month after nearly a month-long recess.

The first part of the session took place from 29th of January to 9th of February after the presentation of Union Budget and adoption of the motion of thanks to President's address.
