Rajya Sabha adjourned amid uproar over police action on students
The Rajya Sabha, which is like a big meeting of important people who make laws in India, had to stop its work for the day because there was a lot of shouting and arguing.
The Opposition, which is the group that is not in power, was upset because the police had hit students with sticks and used tear gas.
These students were protesting because they think the questions for a very important medical exam were leaked.
The Opposition leader, Mallikarjun Kharge, stood up to talk about this, but the other side, which supports the government, started shouting back.
Because of all the noise and arguing, the person in charge of the meeting, called the Chairman, had to stop the meeting twice before finally ending it for the day.
