The ruckus began as soon as the proceedings began at 11am. The house was first adjourned till noon and again until 2pm. It was finally adjourned for the day.

Asaduddin Owaisi of the Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen party, a BSP MP, and Left members resorted to slogan chanting against the government.

The members targeted the government for failing to take action against those who demolished the 16th-century Babri Masjid in Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh Dec 6, 1992.

In response, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Shiv Sena stood up and raised slogans against these parties.

Lok Sabha speaker Meira Kumar urged the members to let the question hour run and promised to let them speak during zero hour.
