Bhagwant Mann summoned over Parliament LIVE Video

However, ruling party members again demanded that Ms. Badal should be allowed to speak on the Mann issue, which was strongly opposed by the Congress. The LS Speaker Sumitra Mahajan also said she’s talking to several people about what action can be taken against Mann. “My intention wasn’t to risk security of Parliament”.

When the House reassembled at noon, the uproar continued, as members from both the opposition and treasury benches were seen raising slogans and speaking at the same time, as Chairman Hamid Ansari asked members to take up the Question Hour.

Inside the Parliament premises, he goes into the room where the process of selection of questions for the Zero Hour is done.

Another senior AAP leader said, “It was an innocuous video and it was certainly avoidable”.

Mann gives a running commentary as his vehicle crosses security barricades and enters Parliament. “I’ll not take photo, will maintain confidentiality”, Mann says in his reply.

Initially, the Lok Sabha was adjourned for nearly an hour till noon. She said, “When Bhagwant Mann met me, he said he’s ready to apologize but this issue isn’t something that can be resolved by mere apology”. However, Mann defended his actions on Thursday, saying he was just showing people how the Parliament functions. Kirit Somaiya (BJP) also demanded his disqualification as an MP. On that day, Congress leader Sonia Gandhi had called then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee to know what had happened, Mahtab added. “Tatkaal barkhast kariye (remove him immediately)”, Singh said. It’s also not a matter of ethics or privilege.

“I am a Sikh and it hurts my religious sentiments when Bhagwant Mann sits tipsy next to me”. The uproar resulted in the Parliamentary proceedings being adjourned.

Mr. Mann was pulled up by the Speaker when he appeared before her at around 11 am, sources in her office said. Since it was a matter related to the Parliament complex, she would consult political parties for “appropriate action”.

MP Mann unperturbed by this criticism said that he will put up another video soon. Union Cabinet Minister of Food Processing, Harsimrat Kaur Badal, said they need to examine the sites where the video was uploaded.
