Flies inside high-security Parliament!

Amidst an animated debate on a health bill in the Rajya Sabha, a few flies troubled some members who could not resist seeking protection from the Chair.

"Sir, there are a number of flies," said BJP member Najma Heptullah, drawing attention of P J Kurien, who was in the Chair.

Her party colleagues - Venkaiah Naidu and Rajiv Pratap Rudy - also lent their voices to Heptullah's concerns almost instantly.

Kurien asked Secretary General V K Agnihotri to take note of the issue and assured Heptullah that the matter would be appropriately looked into.
