The issue was raised as a point of order in the Assembly during discussion on the grants of Home Department by Congress MLA Aijaz Ahmed Khan but there was no response from the government, forcing the members of NC and Congress to resort to protests and walk into the Well of the House amid raising of slogans.
Khan later told the House that employees belonging to ST and SC communities were holding protests for their demands and police resorted to "cane charging to crush their protest".
We demand the concerned DySP should be suspended and action should be taken against the police officials, he said.
