New Delhi, July 19: Samajwadi Party MP Ram Gopal Yadav seems to have lost his cool when an ANI reporter asked him about his party's stand on the no-confidence motion against the Narendra Modi government. While Yadav refused to disclose his party's stand, he followed it by using a cuss word, adding that reporters keep asking the same question even when the party's stand is clear.
Here is how the conversation between the reporter and Yadav played out:
Reporter: Aapka stand? (Your stand?)
Yadav: Aapko pata nahi hai? (Don't you know?)
Reporter: Aap bataadijiye (You tell us)
Here is the video of the conversation

Yadav: Nahi bataaenge. Roz roz ek hi savaal poochhte hain, ch***** samajhte hain humein? (I won't tell you. Every day the same question, you think we are fools?)
The no-confidence motion against the Narendra Modi government was moved by the Opposition parties including the Congress and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) on day one of the Monsoon Session of Parliament on Wednesday. The motion will be taken up in Lok Sabha on Friday.
While the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is confident of the numbers since it has the majority in the House, the Congress, too, has expressed confidence. Reports say that the Opposition is planning to corner the Modi government on the issues of mob lynching as well as MSP for farmers. According to reports, Congress President Rahul Gandhi will lead the Opposition's charge against the Modi government.
Both the Congress and the BJP have issued whips to their respective MPs to be present in Lok Sabha on Friday. The Trinamool Congress, too, has issued a whip to all its MPs to be present in the House.
