As soon as the J-K assembly met this morning, uproar prevailed as BJP members protested against the resolution that was passed on Wednesday.
While BJP MLA and Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma was speaking over the resolution, Awami Ittehad Party leader and MLA Langate Sheikh Khursheed jumped into the well displaying a banner that read Articles 370 and 35A be restored. Also Read – Do you know how Cyclones are named?
This infuriated the BJP members, who also jumped into the well and snatched the banner, which they tore into pieces. The speaker tge adjourned the proceedings for 15 minutes.
However, the BJP members continued their protest even after the House was adjourned. After the House resumed its proceedings, the BJP members continued to protest, even as the speaker requested the opposition members to take their seats.
In some situations, the MLAs of the ruling and the opposition fought each other and ruckus prevailed in the house and the proceedings have come to a standstill. The speaker could not control the members in the house.
The speakers then directed marshalling out of BJP members who stormed the well, leading to a scuffle between assembly marshals and the BJP MLAs. “They deserve it, throw them out,” the Speaker said. As the lone BJP woman MLA, Shagun Parihar stood on a table, female marshals were called in to deal with her.
As the BJP MLAs were marshalled out, they came to blows with the marshals.
