In a dramatic display of dissent, opposition MLAs in Bihar stormed the assembly on Tuesday, donning black attire to protest against the special intensive revision of electoral rolls. The chaotic scene unfolded as the Speaker, Nand Kishor Yadav, was forced to adjourn the session within minutes.
The opposition's black-clad demonstration outside the assembly's main entrance set the tone for the tumultuous proceedings. Their demands for a discussion on the contentious revision, which has sparked opposition from the INDIA bloc, highlighted deep political divisions.
Tensions escalated further inside the House as slogans rose against the state government. Despite Speaker Yadav's attempts to pacify the situation, including a lighthearted plea to protect their voices for upcoming elections, proceedings were halted until the afternoon.
