Opposition members were seen jostling security personnel in the Rajya Sabha in CCTV footage released today in the middle of an acrimonious standoff that peaked over the abrupt end to the monsoon session yesterday. The opposition protests escalated when the General Insurance Business (Nationalisation) Amendment Bill was passed in the chaos, despite demands to refer it to a select committee. A 2.5-minute video showed slogan-shouting MPs at the centre of the house and uniformed marshals, who are in charge of security in parliament, apparently trying to restrain them.
