Rajya Sabha proceedings were Tuesday adjourned Three Times following vociferous protests by Tamil parties led by the AIADMK against holding of recruitment exam for postmen only in English and Hindi language.
Soon after listed papers were laid on table of the House, AIADMK members shouted slogans demanding that the government cancel the postal department exam for recruitment of postmen and other posts and hold it afresh by including Tamil as a language of exams.
Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu [first] ordered stopping of the transmission of House proceedings on television and [then] adjourned proceedings till 1200 hours.
