Both Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition did not attend any sitting during the 39th session. As far as the attendance of MNAs is concerned, average attendance of MNAs during the session was 63.16% (216 MNAs present per sitting). It is rather difficult to explain that if over 60% MNAs were present on the average, how could the house be out of quorum (which is just 25%) in half the sittings.
