Sting operation issue rocks U'khand House

Published on: 

 The Uttarakhand Assembly was adjourned repeatedly on Monday after the Opposition BJP created a ruckus demanding a discussion over the issue of a sting operation reportedly involving a member of the ruling alliance claiming to topple the Government.

On the first day of the Winter Session, the BJP members led by leader of Opposition Ajay Bhatt stormed into the well of the House to seek a discussion from Speaker Govind Singh Kunjwal under the rule 310 (adjournment motion) over BSP MlA Sarwat Karim Ansari.

When Kunjwal denied their demand, members of the opposition came in front of his chair while raising anti-government slogans.

later, Bhatt, while speaking to reporters alleged that the Congress Government was deliberately trying to evade discussion on the issue.

“If the ruling alliance does not want to hold a discussion under rule 310, it can alternatively be done under any other rule and the Opposition was welcome to that,” he said, adding a discussion was must.

Bhatt sought the immediate removal of the MlA from his post and demanded his suspension from the Assembly.

Meanwhile, BSP MlA, Sarwat Karim Ansari, termed the allegations as “baseless” and a “political conspiracy” against him.

He also negated the sting operation in which he is reportedly shown claiming that if he gets `50 crore, he would “topple the Government.”
