Congress leader in Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on Friday apologised to President Droupadi Murmu and stated that he had mistakenly used an incorrect word to describe the post she held.
Sources said Mr. Chowdhury’s formal apology is a sign that the logjam in Parliament could end soon, and the Lok Sabha may take up the discussion on price rise on Monday and the Rajya Sabha a day later.
"I am writing to express my regret for having mistakenly used an incorrect word to describe the position you hold. I assure you that it was a slip of the tongue. I apologise and request you to accept the same," Mr. Chowdhury said in his letter to the President.
