KUALA LUMPUR: After the Parliament was adjourned for the fourth time in a day, Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has accused the Perikatan Nasional government of trying to dodge vote sessions during the special sitting.

"They are adjourning this to avoid debates and votes. If they wanted to test us for Covid-19, there isn't a need to postpone sittings," he told reporters during a press conference in Parliament on Thursday (July 29).
