Bhubaneswar: The Odisha Assembly was adjourned till 4 pm on Tuesday amid uproarious scenes as BJP members created ruckus protesting Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik terming the opposition as ‘anti-people’ in his statement in the House.
As soon as the House assembled for the day, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) legislators were on their feet raising slogans against the remark made by the Chief Minister against the opposition.
Minutes after the question hour commenced, BJP lawmakers trooped into the well of the House holding placards and raising slogans. They demanded that the ‘anti-people’ term used by the CM in his suo motu statement in the House on Monday be expunged.
The saffron party members also protested the suspension of the party chief whip Mohan Charan Majhi and MLA Mukesh Mahaling for the rest of the monsoon session of the Assembly. They also demanded withdrawal of the suspension order.
As noisy scenes prevailed, Speaker Pramila Mallik found it difficult to conduct the business and adjourned the House till 4 pm.
It may be recalled that Mohan Majhi and Mukesh Mahaling were suspended on Thursday from the House for rest of the session for throwing pulses at the Speaker’s podium while staging a protest.
