LS Speaker sends out Ramkirpal, allows after apology

New Delhi, Mar 10 (UNI) Lok Sabha Speaker Somnath Chatterjee today asked RJD member Ramkirpal Yadav to go out of the House for defying the chair when the issue of the reported attack on the CPI(M) office here yesterday was raised by MPs.

Ignoring the pleas of the Speaker, Mr Yadav was on his feet interrupting the statement of BJP Deputy Leader Vijay Kumar Malhotra on the incident during zero hour.

Mr Chatterjee, however, allowed the RJD leader to attend the proceedings a short while later after he tendered a written apology.
