Trinamool Congress' Member of Parliament in Rajya Sabha Derek O'Brien today (20 September) created a big ruckus in the Upper House during the discussion on Farm Bills.


As per reports, O'Brien as part of his protest against the Farm Bills entered the well of the house and aggressively snatched the rule-book placed in front of the speaker. He then reportedly attempted to tear it.

The Rajya Sabha was adjourned following the uproar.


"They have broken every rule of the Parliament. It was a historic day, in the worst sense of the word. They cut RSTV feed so the country couldn't see. They censored RSTV", O'Brien has been quoted as saying.
