The Lok Sabha was adjourned on Thursday following a uproar over the National Democratic Alliance's demand for the resignation of Home Minister P Chidambaram for his alleged role in the 2G scam, and some other issues.

As soon as Speaker Meira Kumar called for the Question Hour, NDA members were on their feet demanding the resignation of Chidambaram. They cited a Delhi court order allowing Subramanian Swamy's re-examination as witness in his complaint against the home minister in the 2G case.

Dravida Munnettra Kazhagam member T R Baalu was heard demanding a discussion on the Mullaperiyar dam issue in Parliament while some other members trooped into the Well and raised slogans.

The Speaker tried to bring the House in order but opposition members refused to relent.

BJP members continued to raise slogans like 'Griha Mantri Istifa Do' (home minister, you should resign) from their seats.

With the unruly scenes continuing, the Speaker adjourned the House till noon.

BJP leader Murli Manohar Joshi later told reporters that since a Delhi court has taken note of this, there should be a probe. "In this situation, Chidambaram should submit his resignation on his own, or else the prime minister should sack him," he said.

Ahead of the winter session, the NDA had decided to boycott Chidambaram in Parliament, alleging his involvement in the 2G scam during his tenure as finance minister.
