PATNA: The Bihar assembly was on Friday paralysed by vociferous protests by the opposition which accused the Nitish Kumar government of dragging its feet on a state-specific caste census.
The matter was raised shortly after commencement of proceedings at 11am through a starred question from leader of the opposition Tejashwi Yadav. As he was not present in the House, the Speaker moved to the next listed question and members of the RJD and Left parties rose in protest.
