The Lok Sabha has been adjourned till noon amid massive opposition uproar over the Lalit Modi controversy.
Congress leaders Mallikarjun Kharge and Veerappa Moily had earlier moved an adjournment motion in the Lok Sabha over the issue.
"We have moved an adjournment motion, let us see whether the speaker is going to permit us to discuss. We are also seeking resignation of Sushma Swaraj ji, Vasundhara Raje and Shivraj Singh Chouhan," Kharge told ANI.
Meanwhile, the Congress party's silent protest at the Gandhi Statue in the Parliament over the Vyapam scam has also been postponed.
The Rajya Sabha was also adjourned four times yesterday, as the Congress continued to insist on the resignation of the Swaraj for her alleged involvement in helping Lalit Modi.
