"If I speak, it will be inside (the house). I am aware of that (adjournment of Lok Sabha), that's why I am standing here (outside)," Gandhi said while talking to reporters here.
Bharatiya Janata Party MP Jagdambika Pal, chairing the Lok Sabha, urged the Opposition members to maintain decorum in the house and let the private members bill be introduced so that discussion can take place.

The House, which commenced on 11 pm on Monday, was earlier adjourned until 4 pm due to constant sloganeering from the opposition leaders demanding discussion and government's response over the Operation Sindoor and Pahalgam terror attack.
