Speaker Meira Kumar said she would allow Rajnath Singh (BJP) and Gurudas Dasgupta (CPI) to raise the issue during Zero Hour.

BJP members, however, appeared unimpressed and kept raising slogans as the Speaker took up Question Hour.

Soon, BJP and Shiv Sena members trooped into the Well raising slogans - 'kaladhan vapas lao (bring back blackmoney) and 'stop atrocities against Hindus in Pakistan'.

As the din continued, the Speaker adjourned the House till noon.
