On Thursday, a verbal spat broke out between Union Minister Smriti Irani and Congress President Sonia Gandhi in the Lok Sabha.

India Today quoted its source as saying that after the Lok Sabha was adjourned at 12 noon after uproar over Congress MP AR Chowdhury’s ‘Rashtrapatni’ remark, Sonia Gandhi approached BJP leader Rama Devi.

However, Smriti Irani intervened during the conversation, and a visibly agitated Gandhi turned around and asked Irani 'not to talk to her'.
