Advani's barb at LS Speaker and Parliamentary Affairs Minister :Neither of you running House properly

New Delhi, Dec 7 (IBNS) : BJP patriarch and Lok Sabha MP LK Advani on Wednesday made a rare intervention, expressing displeasure with Speaker Sumitra Mahajan and Minister for Parliamentary Affairs Ananth Kumar for not being able to run the Lower House, CNN-TV18 reported.

After the Lok Sabha  was adjourned following a ruckus between the Treasury Bench and the Opposition on demonetisation, the  former Deputy Prime Minister wondered why the House, being repeatedly disrupted every day, can’t be adjourned sine die.

"Neither you (Ananth Kumar) nor the speaker is being able to run the house,” Advani said.

Earlier, he had sat through the pandemonium for the entire session on Wednesday.

Advani later asked a Lok Sabha official until what time the House was being adjourned. When told it was until 2 pm, he wondered why it was not being adjourned sine die.
