Miffed with the suspension of its three legislators, BJP on Thursday created a scene in Himachal Pradesh Vidhan Sabha on Thursday with its legislators raising slogans in the corridor of Vidhan Sabha premises, terming the decision of suspension not according to the parliamentary norms.

As the House assembled in the morning, leader of Opposition Prem Kumar Dhumal demanded revocation of the suspension of Suresh Bhardwaj, Rajeev Bindal and Randhir Sharma who were suspended a day before.

Finding Speaker Butail not interested in discussing the issue of suspension of BJP members, BJP legislators staged walkout from the Question Hour.

later, justifying the suspension of BJP legislators, Speaker Butail said that Bhardwaj's action of sitting on Speaker's chair, while he himself was present in house, was a violation of Assembly norms.
