Mediapersons covering the Parliament session spotted Members of Parliament and Ministers sleeping during the debate on the economic slowdown in the Rajya Sabha.
In a video that has gone viral, a MP is seen dozing off while the Finance Minister was speaking. As she proceeded with her reply, another MP was also spotted sleeping. Thereafter, the Minister of State for Finance, Anurag Thakur, was spotted trying to wake them up from their slumber.

"Not only economy, she even made ministers fall asleep", another added.
A twitterati remarked, "People are literally sleeping in the session! Desh ka future decide karne wale so rahe hain".
