The Lok Sabha was today adjourned till noon after BJP MPs created uproar over the "undemocratic" appointment of Lokayukta in Gujarat by Governor Kamla Beniwal.

BJP has maintained that the Lokayukta was appointed by the Governor without consulting Chief Minister Narendra Modi.

Congress MP JP Aggarwal said, "First they (BJP) said Lokayukta should be appointed. When Lokayukta was appointed, they are opposing and saying it is an attack on the federal structure. They should not have disrupted the House."
