Opposition protests Hemant Soren’s arrest with Parliament walkout

Opposition MPs walked out of both Houses of Parliament on February 2, in protest against the arrest of former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren by the Enforcement Directorate.

The decision to put up a united stand was taken at the INDIA bloc’s Parliamentary strategy meeting on Friday morning, the first meeting after the Janata Dal (United)’s exit from the bloc and the Trinamool Congress (TMC) announcement that it will not ally with the Congress in West Bengal for the Lok Sabha election.
