The Parliament was suspended for half an hour a short while ago after an uproar between the government MPs and the opposition MPs during the debate regarding Senior Ministers.

The uproar erupted after the government MPs stated that the opposition was questioning the conduct of the President during the debate on Senior Ministers. The Deputy Speaker suspended the parliament for half an hour due to the uproar. (YP)

As if debating will change the present positions.
Opposition must find something meaningful.

Debate with who? Utter waste of time.
