Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar objected to Kharge, saying "You are forfeiting your right. You always raise questions on a chair that it takes decisions under pressure,"

Leader of the House Piyush Goyal, meanwhile, said "it is truly an insult of the House...", and requested the chair to adjourn the house for some time and warn the members.

As the ruckus continued, the Chairman adjourned the House to meet at 11.50 am after naming a few members with a warning.

The Chairman allowed the 'Question Hour' after the House again assembled at 11.50 am but he had to adjourn it till 11 am on March 13, the second part of the Budget Session, after a brief attempt to run the House amid the din. (ANI)
