Utter chaos and confusion broke out inside the Bengal Assembly on Monday as Bharatiya Janata Party and Trinamool Congress MLAs entered into a fight.
In Bengal, BJP and TMC are at loggerheads. From the Assembly polls to the current situation, the law & order took a serious beating. But this episode in the Legislative Assembly totally disrespects our Constitution.
BJP MLAs came forward to claim that they were assaulted by TMC MLAs inside the Assembly. Following the incident, the Leader of the Opposition in the West Bengal Assembly, Suvendu Adhikari, was suspended.
The ruckus broke out after the BJP MLAs raised slogans over the Birbhum violence. The BJP MLAs stormed the Speaker’s podium for their demand and this did not go down well with the ruling party.
TMC MLAs tried to resist BJP MLA’s attempt and then a scuffle broke out. Trinamool MLA Asit Majumdar suffered a nose injury in the fight and was rushed to the hospital.
Following this fight, the Assembly Speaker suspended five BJP MLAs. But the BJP denied provoking this fight while the party’s leader Amit Malviya shared a video of the scuffle on his Twitter handle.
He alleged that the government chief whip Manoj Tigga manhandled the BJP MLAs.
