MPs Address Traditional Attire Dispute and Share Cordial Moments in Parliament
A dispute over traditional attire arose when IUML MP P V Abdul Wahab wore a kurta-pyjama to Parliament instead of the customary mundu worn by Kerala MPs. Fellow MPs offered him a dhoti, which he initially wore over his pyjama but later set aside. Wahab later gave the dhoti to BJP MP Radha Mohan Das Agarwal. Separately, Congress MP K C Venugopal and BJP MP Jagdambika Pal shared a cordial moment after the Lok Sabha session ended, setting aside past disagreements.
