The R G Kar rape and murder incident reverberates in the Assembly as the BJP MLAs, led by the Leader of Opposition in Bengal Assembly, staged a protest demanding the resignation of the chief minister.
Leader of Opposition in Bengal Assembly Suvendu Adhikari today lodged a complaint of physical assault on him by Trinamul MLA from Purbashtali Tapan Chatterjee. He wrote a complaint to Speaker Biman Banerjee.
State BJP leaders, however, refused to make any comment on the absence of their legislators on the occasion.
Finally, after an hour-long drama at 2.59 pm, the governor budged and the deadlock was lifted after he acceded to the demand of reading the first and last line of his speech much to the relief of the ruling dispensation and marked the commencement of the budget session.
Arguments erupted after Adhikari, who had defeated Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee by a slim margin in the recently-concluded Assembly polls, raised the issue of Banerjee's defeat in the elections in his speech.
