Swaraj had claimed that Speaker of Lok Sabha and Chairman of Rajya Sabha had been taken into confidence by the government of India. "The parliamentary affairs minister had planned adjourning the two houses on May 8 but since we got a wind of it and leaked it out to the which forced the government to back track," she said.
