It took around 20 minutes before themoved to the next question.Birla has always been emphasising in the House that questions as well as answers should be kept short so that more issues can be taken up during the Question Hour On Tuesday, some members, including from the Congress, wanted to ask supplementary questions."If one question takes around 15-20 minutes... and then saying supplementary questions are not being allowed after 12 (noon) is not good," Birla said.He also said that raising questions against the decision of the Chair outside the House is not right.On Monday, the Congress leader said his right as an MP to ask a supplementary question in Lok Sabha was taken away as thedid not allow him to ask one.
