Astounding! Opposition staged parallel proceedings in LA | | | Ishtiyaq Ahmad ET Report srinagar, Oct 6: Perhaps in a first of its kind in the history of J&K Assembly, two major opposition parties, National conference and Congress, on Tuesday staged parallel proceedings in the Well of the House to poke fun at the Government. The Legislative Assembly was rocked by protests for the second day on Tuesday as opposition members stormed the Well of the House demanding adjournment of Question Hour to discuss various issues. The NC was demanding a discussion on Article 35-A which upholds the unique status of Jammu and Kashmir. As the Speaker did not concede to the opposition parties' demands, they placed a chair in the Assembly hall and asked former Speaker and NC MLA Mubarak Gul to preside over the "proceedings." Though the chair was immediately removed by the Assembly staff, Gul conducted mock proceedings with protesting MLAs. The NC legislators demanded a discussion on Article 35-A from former Speaker Mubarak Gul who stood at the entrance of the Well, allowed the discussion, triggering laughter in the House. Some NC MLAs later tried to climb the tables of Assembly reporters, prompting the Speaker to order eviction and suspension of Altaf Wani and Abdul Majeed Larmi for the rest of the session. Infuriated NC members then staged a walkout and raised slogans against the Speaker. |
