P T Usha to take oath in Rajya Sabha

Sprinter P T Usha will take the prescribed oath in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday

New Delhi: Sprinter P T Usha will take the prescribed oath in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday. She was nominated to the Upper House last week. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar is expected to move that the Bill to amend the Weapons of Mass Destruction and their Delivery Systems (Prohibition of Unlawful Activities) Act, approved by the Lok Sabha, be passed in the Upper House. The Bill seeks to provide against financing of proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and their delivery systems in line with India’s international obligations.

Both the Houses remained stalled for the second straight day on Tuesday due to protests by Opposition members who sought a discussion on the issues of price rise and hike in GST rates. Several Opposition parties joined a protest in the Parliament complex organised by the Congress before the House assembled.
