Speaker Meira Kumar today said she is "disturbed and upset" over the disruptions in the Lok Sabha, but steered clear of questions over the motion of suspension of ten MPs from Andhra Pradesh.

"Since it has been moved by the Parliamentary Affairs Minister, he also has a certain decision to make. And we will be arriving at a decision by tomorrow," she told reporters when asked about the Motion moved by Kamal Nath.

The move has not gone down well with several parties which have expressed outrage over the action.

"I am in great anguish, I am so pained and you know it has not functioned from day one. From the day it started, we have not done any work at all. And this is not how the Lok Sabha should be functioning," Kumar said.
 

"We have so much before us, so many bills, legislative business, so many discussions under 193 calling attention; we have not been able to take it up, and I am very disturbed and upset about it," she added.

The Lok Sabha was earlier adjourned for the day amid continued uproar over the motion to suspend 10 members for repeatedly disrupting the proceedings over the decision on Telangana.
