New Delhi, March 21 The Lok Sabha was adjourned till 2 p.m. on Tuesday after disruptions by treasury benches and opposition members over Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's remarks on democracy and the Adani issue.

As soon as the Lower House convened for the day, members from treasury benches stood up and raised slogans against Rahul Gandhi, seeking his apology in Parliament for his remarks.

In the meantime, opposition members rushed into the well of the House and raised slogans seeking a joint parliamentary committee (JPC) probe in the Adani Enterprises issue.

Rahul Gandhi was not present in the House.

Speaker Om Birla said he will give a chance to everybody to speak after Question Hour, however as noisy protests persisted, he adjourned the House till 2 p.m.

Meanwhile opposition MPs are likely to protest outside the SBI branch located in the premises of Parliament over the Adani issue, sources said.
