Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, while speaking on the growth rate in Rajya Sabha on Wednesday, said that it has decreased but it does not mean that there is recession. However, her speech was not liked by some people present in the Rajya Sabha and were seen sleeping behind her. According to reports, Union Minister for Skill Development, Mahendra Nath Pandey slept peacefully until someone came from behind and woke him up. At the same time, Minister of State for Finance Anurag Thakur was also seen taking a nap in between.
Shortly after this, people on Twitter started making funny memes on members of parliament sleeping in Rajya Sabha.
