Kangana Ranaut slams Opposition over ruckus in House, says money spent to run Parliament is being wasted

Kangana Ranaut, on Monday, slammed the Opposition over the ruckus in Parliament Monsoon Session, claiming that money spent to run the Parliament “is being wasted.” 

The Monsoon Session of the Lok Sabha witnessed a stormy start on Monday, July 21, with the session being adjourned 20 minutes after it began. There were slogans by Opposition MPs demanding PM Modi's response to US President Donald's repeated claims of brokering the ceasefire deal during the India-Pakistan's conflict in May.

“The Opposition is not maintaining the dignity of the House, and the money that is spent to run Parliament is being wasted. In every session, they create chaos because they don't want Parliament to function,” Kangana Ranaut told reporters.

Speaker Om Birla insisted that a debate over Operation Sindoor would take place after the Question Hour, but the protests continued.

“The government wants to answer every issue. The House should function. You have not come here to raise slogans. The House functions as per the rules and regulations. All the issues raised according to the rules will be discussed,” Birla told the protesting members.

However, with chaos ensuing further, Om Birla adjourned the session till noon. When the House reconvened at 12pm, continued protests forced another adjournment until 2 pm. The uproar showed no signs of easing, and the House was again adjourned till 4 pm, after which it resumed.
