Rajya Sabha had some light moments on Monday with Samajwadi Party MP Jaya Amitabh Bachchan asking a poser to Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar about the meaning of the middle word in her official name and then suggesting that Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, who is unmarried, add "name of his wife" to his name.
The light-hearted sparring has its origins to Jaya Bachchan`s remarks on July 29 when she raised some objections after Deputy Chairman Harivansh took her name as per official records. She said, "this something new that women will be recognized by the name of their husbands".
