The opposition walked out of the Rajya Sabha Tuesday evening saying it was not satisfied with the reply of Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar on rising prices of food grains.

'The government had said it would control prices in 100 days (after returning to power in May). What is the ground reality? We are not satisfied and are walking out,' Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP S.S. Ahluwalia declared as he led his party MPs out of the house.

The entire opposition followed the BJP MPs.
