RTC is hanging

Dear all,

I am having RTC ds1307.I am facing small issue with it.

I have below code. When RTC is connected to board it read proper date and time prints along with Serial print statement.When i removed the sda and scl pins the arduino board is hanging i.e statement below print date in void loop not executing . Again once i connect back it start working. For other devices like pic,msp it reading garbage value/ default value has 0.0.0 0.0.0 along with print statements.

As per my concern. if rtc is disconnected it should print atleast the serial print data .but don’t know why it is hanging.

RTC has battery back up.

  Serial.println("Welcome to arduino main program");
