The Sansad TV camera focussed on the Lok Sabha speaker for nearly half the time Congress MP Rahul Gandhi spoke in Parliament on Wednesday. But Union minister Smriti Irani remained in focus for most of her speech.
This came a day after opposition MPs objected to Sansad TV tickers tomtomming the government’s achievements while Congress leader Gaurav Gogoi spoke in the Lok Sabha. In March, during the budget session, the proceedings remained muted and the Sansad TV camera kept its focus on the Speaker and non-protesting MPs for nearly 19 minutes amid sloganeering between the opposition and treasury benches over the Hindenberg-Adani controversy.
