Long answers to questions raised by members during the Question Hour in the Lok Sabha irked Samajwadi Party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav on Wednesday.

Yadav objected to Skill Development Minister Rajiv Pratap Rudy giving detailed answers to supplementaries posed to him.

"Is it an answer or a speech...I have been a seven-time member in the Legislative Assembly," he said.

Speaker Sumitra Mahajan said she has already told members and ministers to restrict their questions and answers as the time was limited during Question Hour.
