However, when the House later reassembled, the opposition members were again on their feet. “I will first go through the record of the House and if anti-national word is used, it will be expunged,” he said leading to uproarious scenes from opposition benches again. However, this did not satisfy the agitating opposition members who continued creating uproarious scenes. Amidst uproarious scenes, House passed the appropriation bill for 2016-17 and the annual budget for 2017-18 whereafter the Speaker adjourn the House sine die.
