Raising the issue during Zero Hour, Congress leader Pratap Singh Bajwa claimed that CAG reports have highlighted diversion of food grains and "corruption in Government of Punjab" in the distribution.
Citing figures, he alleged there was a collusion between the state government and "food mafia".
Members from the ruling Shiromani Akali and BJP in Punjab objected to Bajwa's statement.
As the two sides argued, Deputy Chairman P J Kurien asked Bajwa not to level allegations against anyone.
