The trouble began during the Question Hour, when Chouhan listed steps taken by the government for the welfare of farmers and spoke about the committee looking into strengthening the MSP system but did not mention a legal guarantee for MSP.
Congress MPs, including Randeep Surjewala and Jairam Ramesh, protested after the minister's remark, saying his reply was incomplete.
