Nominated RS MP Harivansh to be elected deputy chairman as opposition to boycott polls
Harivansh is set for a third consecutive term as Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman after receiving the sole nomination. The Opposition, however, will boycott the election, citing the government's failure to appoint a Lok Sabha Deputy Speaker, the unprecedented nomination of a Rajya Sabha member for the post, and a lack of consultation.
