Congress members trooped in the Well and raised slogans half way through the Zero Hour after its member Pramod Tiwari raised the issue. The party had raised the issue last week also.
Tiwari, while raising the matter, claimed that the beleaguered industrialist was elected to the Rajya Sabha with BJP support.
Deputy Chairman P J Kurien said Tiwari's notice on the Mallya issue has not been accepted by Chairman Hamid Ansari. He also said that the matter should be referred to Ethics Committee of Rajya Sabha.
Amid their slogan shouting, some other members raised their Zero Hour mentions. The House was adjourned for a few minutes due to the din, just before the start of Question Hour at noon.
