Congress's Lok Sabha member Jyotiraditya Scindia on Thursday said it was "unprecedented" that the treasury benches disrupting the proceedings of the house.

"We are seeing for the first time in (Parliament's) history that treasury members are trying to disrupt the house. And their senior ministers are provoking them. They are displaying posters in the house," Scindia said.

"They have been trying their best to disrupt the house for the last one week. Why are they doing this," the Lok Sabha member asked.

He said it was clear that the government was running away from discussion.

"They are scared and want to run away from discussion. They have lost their face. But the entire opposition will unmask them," he said.

Both the government and the opposition have been accusing each other of disrupting Parliament and running away from discussions.
