An unusual discussion over drinking water arrangements sparked laughter across party lines in the Tamil Nadu assembly on Monday.
DMDK leader Premalatha Vijayakanth made a request regarding the supply of water to members, suggesting glass bottles instead of the existing arrangement.
Former Tamil Nadu chief minister O Panneerselvam responded with a witty remark, 'People will throw glass bottles at each other when they get angry.'
The remark triggered laughter across the House, briefly interrupting proceedings and lightening the mood in the Assembly.
Chief minister Vijay smiled as the House burst into laughter, with several legislators and Speaker JCD Prabhakar also appearing amused.
