Parliament was paralysed for the fourth consecutive working today as Opposition members created pandemonium on a host of issues including Telangana and Home Minister's "insulting" letter to the Bihar Chief Minister besides death of children in Muzaffarnagar relief camps.
With normal functioning disrupted, the notices for no-confidence motion could not be taken up in the Lok Sabha for the third day.
However, the Supplementary Demands for Grants (General) and Demands for Grants (Railways) were passed amid din in the Lok Sabha.
Like the previous three days, trouble started in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha as soon as they met for the day. Due to the slogan-shouting, Lok Sabha was adjourned twice and Rajya Sabha thrice before final adjournment.
In the Lok Sabha, members of Seemandhra, including YSR Congress chief Jaganmohan Reddy, were on their feet protesting creation of Telangana and demanded a united Andhra Pradesh.
Placard-carrying JD(U) members stormed into the Well seeking "apology" from Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde for writing an "insulting" letter to Bihar government over Naxal issue.
The strong missive from Shinde, who rapped the state government for its "failure" in controlling Maoist activities, has apparently not gone down well with Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, who was of late warming up to Congress after breaking away from NDA.
Some JD(U) members were also heard saying that the Home Minister should be sacked.
Shinde, in his letter, had said the situation in the state has become alarming and there is complete breakdown in coordination between the state police and Central forces.
