Veteran actress and Samajwadi Party MP Jaya Bachchan has found herself at the centre of another political storm after her heated exchange with Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar.
Dhankhar and actor-politician Jaya were involved in a face-off on Friday with Bachchan demanding an apology for what she described as an 'unacceptable tone' during the session. While talking to reporters in the parliament complex, Bachchan said she was not only upset with the tone of the Chairman, but also shocked by his decision to turn off the mic of Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge when he stood up to speak in the House. "You have to allow the Leader of Opposition to speak," she asserted.
