Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan on Thursday expressed hope that the ongoing deadlock in Parliament would come to an end soon.
"The bills and laws can be passed only through discussions. Everybody is intelligent and I am sure that the issues will be sorted out," she told the media here.
Mahajan, however, refused to comment on Congress president Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra's criticism of the ruling BJP on Facebook.
"I don't know. It is for the Privilege Committee to see it," she said.
Vadra took to Facebook to slam the BJP, saying he was disappointed to see the country being ruled by them.
"Parliament begins and so do their petty diversion political tactics... People of India are not fooled. Regret to see India Led by such so called leaders !!" he posted on Facebook.
