New-Delhi: There has been major security breach in the parliament after two unidentified men jumped into the chamber from the gallery and reportedly hurled gas emitting objects on Wednesday afternoon during the ongoing session.

The intrusion led to disruption in the proceedings as members and security personnel intervened to manage the chaos that took place. Later, the house was adjourned.

Congress MP Karti Chidambaram says “Suddenly two young men around 20 years old jumped into the House from the visitor’s gallery and had canisters in their hand. These canisters were emitting yellow smoke. One of them was attempting to run towards the Speaker’s chair. They were shouting some slogans. The smoke could have been poisonous. This is a serious breach of security especially on 13th December, the day when Parliament was attacked in 2001…” as reported by ANI.

The incident comes, after Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun had released a video threatening to attack the new Parliament building on December 13 few days ago.

In the year 2001, the Parliament was attacked by terrorist groups killing nine security persons.
