Congress members in the Rajya Sabha today trooped into the well of the House during the Zero Hour today taking serious objection to certain remarks made by nominated member Dr Subramaniam Swamy. <br/><br/>Chaudhary Munavvar Saleem of the Samajwadi Party made a reference to Aligarh Muslim University and urged the government to retain its minority character. <br/><br/>In this context, he recalled that Dr Swamy had supported the minority character of the University in the past. Responding to this, Dr Swamy said that he is not opposed to minority institutions. But, his objection is that they should not be funded by the public exchequer. <br/><br/>One of his remarks triggered vehement protests by the Congress members, who rushed to the well to express their displeasure. <br/><br/>Amidst the uproar, Deputy Chairman P J Kurien ordered the expunction of Dr Swamy's remarks. This again created a disorder leading to heated exchanges between the members on the treasury and the opposition benches. Later, the House took up the question hour.
