The Congress was relentless in its attack on the government on Monday and after being repeatedly ticked off by Sumitra Mahajan, Speaker of the Lok Sabha, for disrupting the proceedings of the House, the party accused her of being partial to the ruling benches. At one point, Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said Mahajan was behaving like the Pope, the supreme authority in Vatican City. When it was the turn of Communist Party of India (Marxist) member Mohammed Salim to speak, he decided to first correct Chowdhury and said there should be no misconception; the Speaker was neither the Pope nor was Parliament the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church!
