Parliament adjourns after protests and heated exchanges between opposition and BJP

India's Lok Sabha was adjourned without a scheduled speech from Prime Minister Narendra Modi after protests and heated exchanges between opposition and ruling party members. The confrontation involved opposition leader Rahul Gandhi holding up a memoir by a former Army chief, while BJP members displayed a book about a past political scandal.

Separately, in the state of Manipur, a new chief minister from the BJP was sworn in, ending a year of direct rule from the central government.
