In the well of the House

At the same time, Chidambaram maintained that the then Central government was not directly responsible for the demolition. “Nobody can accuse the Congress government of not providing adequate support (for protecting the mosque)”.
“The union government sent adequate number of central forces, but Kalyan Singh deployed only four companies at Ayodhya”, he said.

The Home Minister’s speech remained mostly inaudible, as BJP members crowded together in the well of the House, while continuing to raise slogans of “Atalji Jai Jai”.

Could you please explain to me what "in the well" means in this context?
