Union minister and BJP leader Vijay Goel accused the Congress of disrupting proceedings in Rajya Sabha today, and said it stood exposed.

"There were no AIADMK members in the Well. When the House could have taken up legislative business and discussion on banking scam, Congress members rushed to the Well raising slogans...They accuse others of disrupting proceedings. Now, they stand exposed," he said here.

The Rajya Sabha was adjourned for the day today after bidding farewell to retiring members amid protests by Congress members demanding that a discussion on the banking fraud should be held under a rule that entails voting.

The Rajya Sabha has not been able to transact any serious business for the 17th day in a row due to protests over several issues. However today, it took up the process of bidding farewell to about 60 members whose tenure would end in the next few weeks.
