New Delhi, March 19 (TIWN) After the Congress raised slogans during the oath talking ceremony on Thursday, former Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi expressed confidence that the same people "will soon welcome me".
All opposition parties except the Samajwadi Party walked out in protest in the middle of the oath.
"They will welcome me very soon," Justice Gogoi said later, unfazed by the unprecedented booing during his swearing in.
Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad came to Justice Gogoi's defence saying: "Rajya Sabha has a great tradition of many eminent persons coming from diverse fields, including former Chief Justices. Justice Gogoi who has taken oath today will surely contribute his best. It was grossly unfair to do that (Congress walkout)."
