There has been a spat of words between Union Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia and Congress MP Shashi Tharoor over the BJP leader's medium of speech in Lok Sabha on Thursday.

Scindia was answering questions related to his Ministry in Hindi. Following this, Tharoor objected and said the Union Minister should give answers in English. Scindia then replied Tharoor that "agar main Hindi me jawab de raha hu toh inko kya dikkat ho rahi hai, translators Sadan mein baithe hai (If I am answering in Hindi, then what is his problem, translators are sitting in the House."
