BJP members had brought in placards highlighting various scams under the Congress rule to counter the main opposition party's posters attacking the Narendra Modi government.
"Ulta chor kotwal ko daante, kisano ki zameen damaad ko baante (Like a thief rebuking cops, farmers' land is given to the son-in-law)" was one such BJP poster, referring to the controversial land deals involving Congress president Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra.
"C for corruption, C for Congress" read another BJP poster, while a third one said "Congress ka raaj jahan, ghotalon ki baadh wahan (scams flood wherever Congress rules)".
Other Congress placards read: 'Bade Modi meherban, toh chhote Modi pehelwan' (a Hindi idiom meaning that a small person is strong if supported by a powerful person) and 'PM chuppi todo' (PM, break your silence).
It was apparently a hurried job by the BJP members as their placards were written on plain paper, while Congress members had brought fancier printed placards with slogans written in conspicuous colours.
Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan had yesterday taken strong objection to displaying of placards by members and warned them of disciplinary action, saying it was of utmost importance to maintain credibility and dignity of Parliament.
