A Congress MLA, who reached the Rajasthan Assembly today in colour-splattered attire after playing Holi, was ticked off by the Deputy Speaker.
Congress MLA from Todabhim constituency Ghanshyam was asked to come to the House after changing clothes.
As he sat in the House in a festive mood after playing Holi, the Congress member realised that not everyone was game for such an approach as BJP deputy chief whip Madan Rathore objected to it.
Rathore said that the Congress MLA, who has come to the assembly after playing Holi, should know that it is against the norms.
Senior BJP leader Ghanshyam Tiwari too chipped in referring to an instance where a former MLA had entered the assembly, wearing a plate in his neck and was then suspended by the House for seven days for his conduct.
Taking note of the matter, Deputy Speaker Rao Rajendra Singh told the Todabhim MLA to change clothes and then enter the House.
Singh also asked all legislators to obey the rules of the House strictly. He said that trooping into the Well, talking in the aisle of the House and on the seats are against rules.
