All Bharatiya Janata Party  (BJP) MLAs walked out of the Delhi Assembly after Speaker Ram Niwas Goel suspended MLA Om Prakash Sharma for the next session for disrupting proceedings of the House.

The second day of the Monsoon Session of the Delhi Assembly witnessed pandemonium after BJP MLA Mohan Singh Bisht made a sarcastic remark about Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) legislator Somnath Bharti during the Question Hour of the House.

Following this, some AAP legislators, including Bharti, trooped into the Well of the House and demanded an apology from Bisht.

Reacting to this, BJP MLAs, including Bisht, Om Prakash Sharma, Jitendra Mahajan, Anil Bajpai started shouting after which the Speaker directed AAP MLAs to return to their seats, and also asked Bisht to apologise. He also asked other BJP legislators to maintain peace.

BJP MLA Bisht apologised for his remarks but Sharma and Mahajan continued to shout.

The Speaker asked Mahajan to go out of the House for 10 minutes and warned Sharma of action if he continued to disrupt the functioning of the House.

Sharma did not relent and questioned the Speaker’s decision of asking Bisht to apologise follow which which Goel ordered his suspension for the next session.

“I suspend Om Prakash Sharma for the next session of the House,” Goel ruled. Following this decision, all the BJP MLAs walked out of the House.
