The Lok Sabha was adjourned for the day on Tuesday following a din over the Taj Heritage Corridor Project.
Bahujan Samaj Party members repeatedly stormed the well demanding immediate dismissal of Tourism and Culture Minister Jagmohan for 'misleading' the entire nation on the issue.

Much to the embarrassment of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, members of the BSP, its coalition partner in Uttar Pradesh and supporter at the Centre, were up in arms since morning on the issue when the House assembled for the day.
BSP leader Rashid Alvi, who had given a notice for adjournment motion, alleged that Jagmohan had given an impression to the entire country that the work on the project was stopped at the Centre's behest, but the fact was it was Chief Minister Mayawati who did it.
The trouble started immediately after Speaker Manohar Joshi rejected his notice after listening to him for a few minutes.
When the House met after two adjournments, BJP chief whip V K Malhotra said, "The question Jagmohan's dismissal does not arise."
He added that the BSP could not influence the government by storming the well of the House.
BJP members thumped the desks and cheered Malhotra.
