Jaitley said since important legislations were pending, the sitting of the House was extended. The House had not functioned on normal days and so it was decided to have one extra day, he said.. S R Balasubramoniyan (AIADMK) said rules provide for variations in the sitting of the House to be done by taking a sense of the House but that it was not done in case of extending winter session of the House by a day.He said the issue was an utter disregard of parliamentary procedures and the session being extended "illegally".Sensitive bills are being brought bypassing Parliament scrutiny and treating the Waterproof Silicone Rubber Bellows House as a rubber stamp, he said.

It is the government's responsibility to take opposition into confidence for the smooth running of the House, he said."If it was not communicated (in so many words), please consider it owing to my personal lapse and a lapse in my understanding," he said.Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Vijay Goel said members should have been concerned about half of the 20 days of the session being washed out in pandemonium. "The Government has not taken the initiative to run the House.33rd Day Of Lockdown Opposition questions extending RS sitting 'without' following norms .Congress, TMC and AIADMK members cited rule book to criticise the extension.When the House met for the extended one day on Wednesday, Sukhendu Sekhar Roy (TMC) cited Rule 12 of Rajya Sabha to state that the sitting can be extended by the Chairman after making an announcement in the House and the change being published in the Rajya Sabha Bulletin."

Sharma said it is the established practice in Rajya Sabha that no bill be brought without the scrutiny of parliamentary committees but this was not being followed."No announcement from the Chairman was made," he said adding no one was questioning the power of the chairman to extend the session but that the rules were not followed."The government, on the other hand, maintained that the Chairman was within his rights to extend the sitting in view of important legislation, including the one to provide 10 per cent reservation in educational institutions and government jobs to poor from upper castes, pending.It is the right of the government to change or increase sitting of the House, he said, adding the decision to extend the House was first taken at the BAC meeting and then the Chairman holding an informal meeting with leaders of opposition parties."We don't question the ruling of the Chair," he said. Anand Sharma (Cong) said no one is challenging the right of the government but that the House has to be run by rules.

BAC minuted acceptance of the request, he said adding when he on Tuesday adjourned the proceedings of the House till 11 am on Wednesday, it was "implied" that the sitting of the House has been extended by a day.Deputy Chairman Harivansh said that it may be considered his "personal lapse" and a "lapse in his understanding" in not conveying at the time of adjourning proceedings on Tuesday that the sitting of the House has been extended by a day.
