Ansari's call for taking up the Question Hour went unheeded as uproar by opposition Congress over Prime Minister's remarks about his predecessors continued.

AIADMK members also rushed into the Well, with Ansari requesting them to go back to their seats and speak.

Digvijay Singh (Congress) raised strong objections to the Prime Minister's remarks against his predecessor Manmohan Singh and another former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and demanded that the remarks be expunged. Congress members were seen protesting in the aisle, raising "shame, shame" slogans.

This was objected to by I&B Minister M Venkaiah Naidu, who told the Chairman that Singh's remarks should not go on record.

"What Digvijay Singh has said should not go on record," he told the Chairman, who said nothing will be on record except the Question Hour.

"This is not the time," Ansari told Digvijay Singh.

He again told the AIADMK members to return to their seats and speak from there.

However, with the pandemonium prevailing in the House, Ansari adjourned the proceedings till 1400 hours.
