Afterward, Akhilesh Yadav walked out of the Lok Sabha. Furthermore, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla spoke up and said, "It is very easy for all of you to demand 'expunge this expunge that', but why should the need to expunge arise at all? Once a remark is given, it is already in public domain. Therefore, we all should speak keeping the dignity of the Parliament in mind."
