Parliament Affairs Minister Kamal Nath Tuesday said parliament cannot discuss the purportedly illegal land deals of Congress chief Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra as it is a "state issue".

"It is a state issue and parliament does not discuss state issues ... if they (opposition) want to discuss, then Congress members will demand a debate on the mining scam in Karnataka and mining mafia in Madhya Pradesh. We must discuss issues of Gujarat," Kamal Nath told Times Now channel here.

Both houses of parliament have been repeatedly disrupted as Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) members demanded a discussion on the corruption charges against Vadra and on communal clashes in the Jammu region.
