CWG scam rocks Parliament; question hour stalled

The opposition stalled the question hour in both the houses of parliament for the second day today, demanding the resignation of Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit in the wake CAG observations against her.

As Lok Sabha speaker Meira Kumar finished references to the nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, BJP and Shiv Sena members moved  into the well of the house raising slogans against Dikshit, and were joined by Samajwadi Party members  who raised the issue of fake police encounters in Uttar Pradesh.

Parliamentary affairs minister P K Bansal said amidst the din the house should be adjourned for the day in view of the stand adopted by the opposition.

The Rajya Sabha was adjouned till noon barely minutes after it met for the day, as opposition BJP members began shouting slogans even before chairman Hamid Ansari took his seat.

As he took up the questions listed for the day, BJP members moved towards the well shouting slogans against Dikshit.

To counter the opposition attack, some ruling party  help up posters alleging cost overrun and overpayment for projects in BJP-ruled Gujarat.
