In light of Opposition parties boycotting the inauguration of the new Parliament building in New Delhi on May 28, BJP lawmakers in Bihar on May 26 hit out at Janata Dal(U) supremo and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, pointing out how he had not given “due respect” to the Governor while inaugurating an extension to the State Assembly.
So far, 21 Opposition parties have announced their decision to boycott the inauguration by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, sidelining President Droupadi Murmu.
BJP MLAs and MLCs, led by State unit president Samrat Choudhary and Legislature Party leader Vijay Kumar Sinha, staged protests on the Assembly premises and at the Annexe building of the Legislative Council.
