Opposition says govt trying to bulldoze Finance Bill without discussion

CPI(M) accused the government of engineering "scripted disruptions through its allies, both estranged and prospective"

The Lok Sabha could not take up Finance Bill 2018-19, Appropriation Bills and demands for grants with protests forcing a washout of the proceedings for the seventh consecutive day.

The government had listed the Finance Bill, Appropriation Bills and a vote on all the outstanding demands for grants in respect of the Budget 2018-19, called 'Guillotining' in parliamentary parlance, in the revised list of business of the Lok Sabha for Tuesday.

Cut motions on demands for grants of the ministries of railways, agriculture and farmers' welfare and social justice and empowerment were also listed in the business agenda of the Lok Sabha,
