New Delhi, Mar 13 (IBNS):  Amid a huge ruckus by opposition parties over the PNB fraud case,  the Rajya Sabha was adjourned  till 2 pm  and the Lok Sabha till noon on Tuesday.

In the Rajya Sabha, Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Sukhendu Sekhar Roy raised the issue of the alleged PNB scam by diamond czar Nirav Modi and asked Naidu to allow a discussion to be held in the house.

Several opposition parities including, the  Congress and the TMC raised the similar issue in Lok Sabha as well.

The lower house was adjourned till noon.

The government has so far failed to bring in any legislation in  parliament in the budget session, which resumed on Mar 5, due to the repeated disruptions by the opposition parties.
