RS Chairman Radhakrishnan to Kharge: You Are Always Pressuring Me
In India, there is a big room called the Rajya Sabha where important leaders talk about issues.
The person in charge of the room is called the Chairman, and his name is C P Radhakrishnan.
The leader who speaks for the opposition is Mallikarjun Kharge.
Kharge wanted to talk about money that people say was stolen from a temple called the Ayodhya Ram Temple.
The Chairman said no to this talk.
He said this matter belongs to the state government, not to the big room of the Rajya Sabha.
He also said he is always feeling pressure from Kharge.
The Chairman said he cannot let the same topic be discussed every single day because it would disturb the House.
After that, the leaders went back to Question Hour, where they ask questions to the government.
Rajya Sabha Chairman C P Radhakrishnan told Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge that he is 'always under pressure' from him.
Radhakrishnan disallowed Kharge's demand to raise the alleged theft of Ayodhya Ram Temple donations.
The Chairman said the issue is a state subject, just like the 'Jharkhand issue' he also disallowed for the Treasury benches.
He said the Opposition cannot raise the same subject every day and disturb the House.
The remarks came when the House reconvened at 12 noon after the first adjournment and took up Question Hour.
