Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal on July 27 objected to Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury raising a point of order in the Lok Sabha after they got into a spat over Opposition members disrupting External Affairs Minister (EAM) S. Jaishankar’s statement on India’s foreign policy engagements.
The sharp exchange not only saw Mr. Chowdhury come to the Well but also led to a 20-minute adjournment in the post-lunch session. A Congress MP was seen hurling a piece of a torn poster at the Chair amid the sloganeering.
