TRS came into the well sloganeering and showing placard raising its demand on national policy on food procurement.

Stopping members, Naidu said: "You don't want House to run...There are various important issues in Zero Hour but you don't want to function the House..."

As the Opposition continued their protest, Naidu announced to adjourn the House till 12 noon.
