Here are the details of what happened during the six minutes that Parliament was convened today.

The government decision to allow FDI in retail caused an uproar in both Houses of Parliament, with ruling UPA ally Trinamool Congress leading the charge and the entire opposition joining them.

Soon after Speaker Meira Kumar condemned the attack on Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar, Trinamool Congress members rushed near the Well of the Lok Sabha demanding cancellation of the decision of the Union Cabinet to allow 51 per cent FDI in multi-brand retail and 100 per cent FDI in single-brand retail.

Members of CPI(M), CPI and BJP were seen in the aisles raising slogans against the government's decision and trying to unfurl banners demanding roll-back of the Cabinet decision taken last night.   

Some members from Kerala were seen waving copies of Malayalam newspapers carrying a report on Tamil Nadu government's decision to ban a movie (Dam 999) that depicts a dam burst.
