Ruckus in Rajya Sabha

In Rajya Sabha, TDP and AIADMK members rushed into the Well as soon as proceedings of the day started. TDP members were opposing bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, while AIADMK members referred to the plight of Tamil fishermen.
Holding placards, DMK members asked the Centre to move a resolution at UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) against Sri Lanka.
As chairman Hamid Ansari's repeated pleas for order went unheeded, he adjourned the House till noon minutes after the day's proceedings began.
In Rajya Sabha, TDP and Congress members were in the well shouting slogans for a united Andhra Pradesh, while Gundu Sudha Rani (TDP) carried a poster that Telangana bill be brought in Parliament.
Naresh Agrawal of the SP rose to draw the attention of the House for inclusion of some backward castes in the SC/ST Bill.
Both BSP and SP members trooped into the Well raising slogans in support of this demand.
Amid slogan shouting and uproar, two bills - the Wakf Properties (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Bill, 2014 and the Delhi Hotels (Control of Accommodation) Repeal Bill, 2014, were introduced.
As the din continued, deputy chairman PJ Kurien adjourned the House till 2pm.
