    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. In fact, I want to agree with you. The point you have raised seems to be building a tradition in this House on two points. The issue is about “point of information” and “point of order.” You will notice that whenever somebody shouts for a particular order, all speakers, invariably, freeze and stop speaking even before you have intervened. Whereas the practice has been that when somebody calls out for a “point of order”, you continue speaking until the Speaker so commands you. The issue you have raised about point of information, our practice has been that when somebody shouts “point of information”, the Speaker asks the person who has the Floor whether he wants to be informed. It is only after that person has accepted to be informed that the Speaker allows the person who proposed to inform to go ahead and inform. That practice seems to be dying."
