In a dramatic turn of events at the Odisha assembly, 12 suspended Congress MLAs staged a protest in the Well of the House, refusing to vacate and demanding an inquiry into crimes against women during the BJP’s rule. Speaker Surama Padhy took action against the MLAs for their act of indiscipline. The MLAs resorted to various forms of protests, including playing gongs and chanting slogans, to make their voices heard. Efforts to resolve the issue through an all-party meeting proved unsuccessful as the suspended MLAs stood their ground. The situation in the assembly remained tense as the opposition members continued their protest, disrupting the proceedings. The incident underscores the growing tensions and political turmoil in the state’s legislative body. The suspension of the Congress MLAs and their subsequent protest have added fuel to the already simmering political climate in Odisha. As the standoff continues, all eyes are on the next steps that will be taken to address the issue and restore order in the assembly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
