Indian ministers fall asleep during parliament debate on economy

On Wednesday, a heated debate on the economy saw the opposition stage a walk-out from India’s parliament and those who remained seated were seem exhausted, as they fell asleep one by one.

Nirmala Sithraman, India’s Finance Minister gave a fiery address discussing the state of the Indian economy, saying that sectors such as the automotive industry had already begun bouncing back since Sithraman released her first budget and adding that, the growth of the sector may have slowed but the country is not recession.

Many of Nirmala’s BJP colleagues remained seated around hear would seemingly only hear her rousing words on the evening news, however, after some time they all started to fall asleep.
