The Leader of Opposition Dhananjay Munde said they would not participate in any business of the House until the government announced a complete loan waiver.

He said today's was the seventh session where the opposition has made the demand for loan waiver.

"The government does not want to announce the loan waiver because most of the district central cooperative banks are controlled by the Congress-NCP. In the last two years, more than 9,000 cooperative bank account-holding farmers have committed suicides because of indebtedness," the NCP leader said.

He asked whether the government was waiting for more than 25,000 farmers out of total 1.37 crore farmers who hold bank accounts in cooperative banks, to commit suicides.

As the opposition members continued with their slogan shouting, the Deputy Chairman adjourned the proceedings for the day.
