During the ongoing budget session of the Bihar Assembly, opposition members have persisted in their disruptions, led by the absent Leader of Opposition, Tejashwi Yadav, who is currently engaged in the Jan Vishwas Yatra. Amidst his absence, opposition parties have relentlessly attempted to corner the government on various contentious issues. The day's proceedings commenced with the Question Hour, followed by the zero hour and attention-calling, with the latter half reserved for discussions on departmental budgets and government responses.
The atmosphere inside the assembly remained charged as opposition members raised slogans, including 'Nitish Murdabad', alleging insults to Dalits and demanding apologies from BJP MLA Shailendra. In response,CM Nitish Kumar expressed his ire, stating that while the opposition chants 'Murdabad' against him, they should focus on their own survival. Tensions escalated further when CM Nitish defended KK Pathak amidst calls for his removal, prompting opposition members to stage a sit-in protest within the assembly premises.
