The Lok Sabha Friday took up the discussion on the Interim Budget amid din as members of several opposition parties raised slogans against the government over the Rafale deal.

The Interim Budget was presented on February 1.

As Kalraj Maishra, who was the presiding officer in the Speaker's absence, allowed a discussion, protesting Congress members intensified their slogan-shouting, objecting to the debate when the House was not in order.

One member was seen tearing papers and throwing them at the Speaker's table, and Mallikarjun Kharge of the Congress said, "It is not good. The House is not in order."
