AIADMK lawmakers demanded action against former Union Minister P Chidambaram's son Karti Chidambaram.
AIADMK members created uproar in Lok Sabha for the second day today demanding action against former Union Minister P Chidambaram's son Karti Chidambaram on the Aircel-Maxis issue as Speaker Sumitra Mahajan allowed them to raise the matter later in the day.
As soon as the House met, AIADMK lawmakers trooped into the Well shouting slogans and demanded action from the government.
Amid the din, Parliamentary Affairs Minister M Venkaiah Naidu said the government has no problem in discussing the matter in any manner and also take necessary action.
When Ms Mahajan said she was ready to allow discussion on the issue after the Question Hour, the protesting AIADMK members returned to their seats.
AIADMK members earlier raised slogans like 'NDA sarkar take action' and displayed copies of a newspaper which has claimed that Karti Chidambaram has invested in real estate in various countries, as per investigations by Enforcement Directorate and Income Tax authorities during searches at his premises.
Protesting against the Speaker's decision to allow discussion on the matter, Congress members rushed into the Well. Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge asked how can it be allowed.
The Congress members were heard shouting 'we want privilege motion'. Congress and other party members have given notices for privilege motion against Human Resource Development Minister Smriti Irani for allegedly misleading the House.
In response, Ms Mahajan said, "I want to make it clear that there is a procedure (related to privilege motion notice)".
Prime Minister Narendra Modi was present in the House.
