Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar clashed with Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Derek O'Brien over wrestler Vinesh Phogat’s Paris Olympics disqualification. O'Brien's shouting prompted Dhankhar to reprimand him harshly, accusing the Opposition of politicizing Phogat’s plight and disrespecting her. Dhankhar warned O'Brien about the gravity of challenging Parliament's decorum and likened the situation to past emergency phases. Following the altercation, the Opposition walked out of the session.

00:00This challenge is being given to the position of Sabhapati and this challenge is being given because the person who is sitting on this position is not worthy of it, this is what they think.
00:30The entire nation is in pain because of our girl, entire nation is feeling the pain.
00:39Sir, this is a request for establishing defence, maintenance, repair and overall MRO hub in Ambala.
00:50Today, I am here with a request from the people of Ambala and the surrounding areas.
01:20I will not countenance it.
01:24Honourable members, we have seen the ugliest of scenes.
01:31We saw a dark phase of our democracy during emergency.
01:37We know how it starts.
01:40It starts first with a challenge to the parliament institution.
01:46And that challenge was there in June 1975.
01:52A serious challenge here.
01:54I am sure we have distinguished members here.
01:57Can anyone countenance this kind of conduct?
02:04They think they are low unto themselves?
02:08They think they are all wise?
02:11They think they are the only ones whose heart is bleeding?
02:15The entire nation is in pain because of our girl.
02:21Entire nation is feeling the pain.
02:24Right from the president to the prime minister to myself and many more, everyone is sharing the situation.
02:33But to monetise it, to politicise it, is the greatest disrespect to that girl.
02:41That girl has a long way to go.
03:11This is what they think.
03:14I have not got the support of the house as much as I wanted.
03:21I have made every effort.
03:24Don't laugh at it, Mr. J. Ram.
03:27No.
03:29Listen. Don't make an issue of it.
03:31No, don't make it.
03:33Listen, please.
03:35Honourable members.
03:37I know your habit.
03:40One second.
03:42Honourable members.
03:44I have only one option.
03:48I have a lot of senior members in the house.
03:52They are still present.
03:54I respect them.
03:56They have seen much more politics than I have.
04:00Sadly, I am not running away from my oath.
04:06But what I have seen today,
04:10the way I have been treated,
04:13physically,
04:16the way I have been treated here,
04:21I am not able to sit here for a while.
04:31I am saying this with a sad heart.
04:33Namaskar.
