After criticism, Sachin Tendulkar attends Rajya Sabha proceedings
However, Tendulkar did not ask any questions during the proceedings.
Boxer Mary Kom was also present at the Upper House.
Earlier, on Tuesday, Samajwadi Party MP Naresh Agarwal had questioned the absence of nominated members from the Rajya Sabha.
Agarwal had asked Tendulkar and actress Rekha to resign from the Rajya Sabha.
According to data from Rajya Sabha website, Sachin attended just two out of 25 sessions in last year’s winter session. In the budget session this year, he attended 1 out of 8 sessions.
