Members of other parties, including the DMK, CPI-M and Samajwadi Party, also sought to raise their issues.

Some members held placards to "pass the SC/ST sub plan bill".

Members supporting creation of a separate state of Telangana also moved near the podium.

After the day's papers were laid on the table of the house, Shinde moved the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Bill, 2014.

When the house met again, members from Seemandhra region again came near the speaker's podium. Members from some other parties also sought to raise their issues.

The protests continued as Shinde began reading his speech. The speaker then adjourned the house till 3 p.m.

    In spite of objections from several people and the people of all walks of life (majority people) not to divide Andhra Pradesh, and in spite of agitation, in spite of the rejection of the bill by the concerned Assembly introduction of the Bill in Lok Sabha is unfortunate and opposed to the principles of democratic Governments. No doubt the Parliament has power under the Constitution, but such power shall be exercised for the sake of people and for the benefit of people at large. The properties acquired by a joint family shall be shared among the family members equally. The elder one should not be thrown out with a meagre share. Both the partners should be treated equally and the loss, if any, that may be sustained by one partner shall be recouped suitably. Any division must be in a peaceful and pleasant situation. The division with enmity and tension of insecurity is not good for the both.
