During zero hour, Lourenco raised the issue of parents, who are currently protesting at Azad Maidan here, on making English as the medium of instruction in elementary education in the state.
The government had asked the parents to vacate the ground.
"I would request chief minister to go and meet the parents," Lourenco said even as Speaker Rajendra Arlekar stopped him from speaking on the floor of the House.
