The Lok Sabha on Friday was adjourned amid protests spearheaded by the Opposition over recent communal violence in Delhi which claimed more than 50 lives.

The Opposition resorted to sloganeering, demanding the presence of the Prime Minister in the House and initiate a discussion on Delhi violence. 

The House was adjourned after the passage of two Bills -- the Mineral Laws (Amendment) Bill and the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Second Amendment) Bill, PTI reported.

It will resume proceedings on Wednesday (March 11) after the Holi break. 

On Thursday, seven Congress MPs were suspended from Lok Sabha on the "charges of gross misconduct" over protests in the House by Opposition parties over Delhi riots. 

The Congress members were accused of "utter disregard" for House rules after they snatched papers from the Speaker's table following which a motion to suspend them for the remaining period of the Budget Session was passed by a voice vote.

Gaurav Gogoi, TN Prathapan, Dean Kuriakose, R Unnithan, Manickam Tagore, Benny Behnan and Gurjeet Singh Aujla have been suspended from Lok Sabha.

They will not be allowed to attend the House proceedings for the rest of the Parliament's Budget session.

Lok Sabha members, mostly from the Congress, shouted slogans and displayed placards, demanding the resignation of Home Minister Amit Shah over the Delhi violence.

They have been demanding discussion on the riots which the government has said will be done after Holi.
