NEW DELHI: The Aam Aadmi Party and BJP sparred in Delhi assembly on Monday after the ruling party legislators passed a censure motion against the latter’s state unit president for allegedly making derogatory remarks against chief minister Arvind Kejriwal.
There were noisy scenes when the MLAs of both the parties stormed the well of the House, shouting slogans against their opponents. Speaker Ram Niwas Goel suspended three BJP MLAs — Ajay Mahawar, Anil Bajpai and Jitender Mahajan — for a brief period amid vociferous protests by AAP over Adesh Gupta’s remarks. The three BJP MLAs were told to leave the House after they stood on the benches. The House proceedings had to be adjourned twice amid the din.
