A heated confrontation occurred in the Rajya Sabha between Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar and TMC MP Derek O'Brien regarding a discussion on the Manipur issue. The opposition had been insisting on a debate on Manipur violence using rule 267, which calls for the suspension of regular proceedings to discuss the matter at hand. Chairman Dhankhar strongly criticized Derek O'Brien, accusing him of theatrics during the session. Additionally, Dhankhar expressed his disapproval of the TMC MP's table-thumping while making his demands.

00:00 Honourable members, we in this house are to exemplify our actions that are nationally
00:09 acclaimed, that inspire and motivate people at large.
00:17 Having this scenario every day with the same situation does not evoke the kind of respect

00:38 to emulate them.
00:41 I get input from all over, they indicate very some alarming concern.
00:49 I would therefore appeal to the wisdom of the house to rise above partisan interests
00:59 and work in a manner so that short duration discussion to which I have agreed is agreed.
01:19 Honourable members, every day including the last session and earlier to that, we had number
01:30 of notices under Rule 267.

01:43 aware how many such notices have been admitted.

02:20 Mr. Derek O'Brien, it has become your habit to engage into theatrics.
02:33 You every time rise, you think it is your prerogative.
02:37 The minimum thing which you can exemplify is to show respect to the chair.
02:43 If I am saying something, you rise and create theatrics.
02:49 Sorry, gentlemen, gentlemen.
02:56 Don't thump the table.
02:57 Don't thump it.
02:58 It is not a theatrics.
02:59 We will not countenance this.
03:00 No, I am so sorry.
03:01 No, I will call the leaders.
03:02 No, sorry.
03:03 The house is urgent for the day.
03:04 We can't suffer this.
03:15 And to meet on Monday, the 35th July at 11 a.m.
