New Delhi : The Lok Sabha was adjourned for half hour Monday after members of the opposition United National Progressive Alliance (UNPA) created an uproar over the India-US civilian nuclear deal.
As the house met, MPs of the Samajwadi Party ran towards the speaker’s podium shouting “Nuclear deal should be dropped” and “Bush ki gulami nahin chalegi” (Subservience to Bush will not be allowed).
Members from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), which is part of the ruling United Progressive Alliance (UPA) coalition, were also on their feet, wanting to speak on the deteriorating flood situation in Bihar.
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MPs sought to speak on the developments in Goa, where the Congress-led government won a controversial vote of confidence last month.
As the din continued, Speaker Somnath Chatterjee adjourned the house at 11.05 a.m. till 11.30 a.m.
