Responding to a submission by Mohan Singh (SP) that the issue should be added in the agenda for next week in the House, Speaker Somnath Chatterjee said: "I have allowed this to be added in the agenda. The issue will come up for discussion."

He said that great "injustice" had been meted out to Ganguly, who is a great world class player, due to politics in the game.

"Such incidents will affect the morale of young players and we must take corrective measures," he added.
