Watch: here's why Speaker Om Birla shunned BJP MP in Lok Sabha

Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Tuesday shunned a BJP MP for intervening when Law Minister Kiren Rijiju was responding to Rahul Gandhi's allegations on Adani row.

Birla had asked Rijiju to respond to the Congress leader's allegations that the Indian government and PM Modi were facilitating industrialist Gautam Adani to divert about 24% of air traffic to his airport.

As Rijiju began to speak, several BJP MPs spoke in unison after which Birla can be seen asking one of the MPs to let the law minister talk.

Birla told the concerned MP that the law minister will have the right information on the issue. He remarked, "tum kyu gyaan baat rahe ho..."

The law minister in response also sought proof from Rahul Gandhi to ascertain the allegations, who responded by saying that they will provide the documents.
