Uproarious scenes were witnessed in the Rajya Sabha  in India yesterday after the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam and the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam protested against postponing of discussion on the Sri Lankan Tamil issue. They staged a walkout after Deputy Chairman K. Rahman Khan said the issue of corruption would be taken up on Wednesday against the listed item of problems of Tamils in Sri Lanka.

MPs from Tamil Nadu, including some from the Left parties, were insisting on the short duration discussion on the problems of the Sri Lankan Tamils, pending since the session started.

To resolve the issue, Mr. Khan adjourned the House for 15 minutes after the question hour. When the House reassembled, it was announced that the Sri Lankan Tamil issue would be taken up today.  This led to the DMK and AIADMK members protesting and staging a walkout. (The Hindu)
