Hon& #39;ble @loksabhaspeaker sir separation of powers is part of basic structure of Constitution. Parliament has the power & duty to question the govt. We& #39;re elected to ask questions & hold the govt accountable. A session that takes up only govt business prevents us from doing so
There& #39;s a requirement for 15 days& #39; notice period for questions & I request that questions from members be accepted starting today so that the House can take up questions well within time. It& #39;s also your discretion to reduce the notice period u/r 33 of LS Rules of Procedure
One may also consider a single day& #39;s sitting for only Questions. In any case, nothing prevents the govt from answering unstarred questions

Similarly Hon& #39;ble Speaker enjoys the discretion to issue a revised bulletin that accounts for private members business & questions
Even during exceptional situation of 1962 India-China war, Question Hour was suspended only after All Party Meeting (APM). In this case @PMOIndia didn& #39;t hold an APM. When Standing Committee meetings are being held & even #JEENEET, why not an APM to consult us before Parliament?
