The House witnessed five adjournments as the some opposition members continued protests over suspension of members.
The proceedings of the House were almost washed out as it could not take up any legislative business. Earlier in the day some members managed to raise issues during Zero Hour
The members resorted to sloganeering after the resolution was moved by voice vote.
During the third time, the proceedings of the Upper House was adjourned by Deputy Chairman Harivansh till 11:07 am.
As soon as the House resumed at 12 pm, Bhubaneswar Kalita, who was in the chair, asked the suspended members to leave the House and urged members to maintain decorum.
However, the opposition members refused to budge forcing the Chair to adjourn the House for the day.
Earlier in the day, Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu termed the behaviour of members during the passage of the bills on Sunday as "very unfortunate, unacceptable and condemnable" and one that has "tarnished" the image of Parliament, particularly the House of Elders.
