Bharatiya Janata Party member Prakash Javadekar seemed most upset with Friday's Rajya Sabha adjournment as his resolution on creation of a separate Telangana state was on top of the private members' business listed for the afternoon session.
Friday afternoons are usually reserved for private members' resolutions and bills, and the house is not adjourned even in case of pandemonium, since protests are against the government and not against members.
Javadekar blamed the ruling Congress, indirectly indicting the deputy chairman for denying him a chance to voice the concerns of people of Telangana. "It is betrayal by Congress of the people of Telangana. Just to avoid the issue they disturbed the house today. BJP condemns the act," he said.
