For the second time in the Monsoon Session, Lok Sabha presiding officer Jagdambika Pal's remarks were expunged on Wednesday. As the House reconvened at 2 pm after an adjournment, Pal tried to restore order and asked opposition MPs to return to their seats, making a comment that included a reference to 'Chotelal'. The Deccan Herald reported the expunction.
The opposition and the treasury benches both love to pick selective fights over procedural words. Expunging a stray reference to 'Chotelal' risks looking petty unless the full context is laid out. The real test is whether the Chair can restore order without playing favourites. Watch if either side demands an apology or if this fizzles out by the next sitting.
