Monkey Props, 'Modiya Bind' Jibe Derail Parliament Amid BJP Backlash
In India, leaders called Members of Parliament meet in a big building called Sansad, or Parliament, to make rules for the country.
Some leaders from the opposition, the groups that are not in charge, were upset.
To show they were angry, they brought monkey toys to Parliament and said a teasing phrase called 'Modiya Bind.'
The ruling party, the BJP, did not like this and complained loudly.
Because of all the shouting and protesting, not much work got done that day.
Some people said it was a waste of time and money.
Others wondered if leaders should only be paid when they actually do their work, an idea called 'No Work, No Pay.'
A news show called Decoding Now talked about all these opinions.
People disagreed about whether the protests were fair or just silly.
Parliament witnessed a fresh political showdown as opposition protests used monkey props and a 'Modiya Bind' jibe.
The protest triggered a backlash from the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Disruptions caused lost hours and raised questions over parliamentary productivity.
The ruckus has prompted debate over introducing a 'No Work, No Pay' rule for lawmakers.
The controversy was debated on Times Now's Decoding Now show with anchor Meghna Deka.
