New Delhi: Minister of the Environment Kiren Rijiju criticised the Congress on Monday for 'disrupting' House procedures, telling party leader Shashi Tharoor to "tell his Yuvraj" that Parliament is not the "personal playground of a dynast." This came just days before the start of the Monsoon Session. He said the Congress party's sole goal in Parliament is to stymie its operations. Rijiju predicted that as soon as work began on the new Parliament building, Congress members 'will rush into the Well of the House to create ruckus'.
He was referring to Tharoor's newspaper article from April, which discussed the frequent interruptions in the Lok Sabha during the second half of the Budget Session.
