Legislators of the Trinamool Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on March 28 came to blows in the West Bengal Legislative Assembly.
The incident occurred when the BJP MLAs led by Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari were demanding a discussion in the Assembly on the Rampurhat violence. The BJP MLAs were protesting against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s remarks on Rampurhat violence in public events and not making a statement in the House. A scuffle ensued between the legislators of the Treasury and Opposition Benches when the protesting BJP MLAs assembled near the chair of Speaker Biman Banerjee. First there was a scuffle between security personnel and the BJP legislators but after some time the TMC MLAs joined them.
