NDA attacks Nitish govt over law and order issue in Bihar

Opposition BJP and its allies today created ruckus in the Bihar Assembly over the alleged soaring crime graph in the state in the wake of recent killing of few opposition leaders, thus forcing adjournment in both Houses.

As the House sat for the day, Leader of Opposition Prem Kumar pointed to an adjournment notice given by four party MLAs and urged Speaker Vijay Chaudhary to take up the issue before other listed issues.

The Chair said that the House would take it up as per rules at some other time. But, this did not satisfy the opposition who trooped into Well of the House and raised anti-government slogans.
 

The law and order issue forced an adjournment in the Legislative Council as well.

Amid the din in the Assembly, the Leader of the Opposition was heard mentioning about murder of LJP leader Brijnathi Singh, BJP state Vice President Visheshwar Ojha, BJP leader Kedar Singh and the alleged rape of a minor girl by RJD MLA Raj Ballabh Yadav.

He alleged that Raj Ballabh Yadav, RJD MLA from Nawada remained out of reach of the police even after two weeks of the crime due to "shelter provided by the ruling party.
