AIADMK uproar in LS on 2G spectrum allocation issue

NEW DELHI: The Lok Sabha was today adjourned as AIADMK members created uproar waving newspapers carrying reports of an alleged scam in allocation of 2G spectrum and demanded the resignation of Communications Minister A Raja.

The AIADMK members rushed to the well displaying copies of the newspaper soon after Speaker Meira Kumar called for Question Hour.

Left members also joined the members in the well and started demanding an apology from Trinamool Congress member Sudip Bandopadhyay for his remarks against CPI(M) member Basudeb Acharia.

Kumar's repeated appeals to allow Question Hour to continue went unheeded even as members from the Treasury benches, including senior ministers, waved the agenda papers demanding that the House functions properly.

As appeals from Parliamentary Affairs Minister P K Bansal too went unheeded, the Speaker adjourned the House till 12:00 noon
