Congress leader Jairam Ramesh took to X and said, "The INDIA parties are demanding -- a detailed statement by the Home Minister in both Houses, followed by a discussion on the very serious and shocking security breach witnessed in the Lok Sabha yesterday and strict action against the BJP MP Pratap Simha who provided the visitor passes to the intruders."
"The Modi government’s refusal to accept these perfectly legitimate and reasonable demands has led to the adjournment of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha today morning," the Rajya Sabha MP added.
