Chaos Erupts Over Seating Arrangement in Bihar Assembly

Rabri Devi Targets Nitish Kumar Over Waqf Board Bill

The Bihar Assembly descended into chaos as RJD legislators clashed with marshals over seating arrangements. The uproar began when RJD MLA Bhai Virendra, in an act of defiance, approached CM Nitish Kumar’s seat, prompting marshals to forcibly remove him.

Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav accused the ruling party of ignoring procedural rules, allowing defectors to sit with the treasury benches despite written complaints from the RJD. He criticized the government for fostering disorder and failing to act against rebel legislators.

The assembly speaker adjourned proceedings until 2 PM amidst the ruckus. Meanwhile, RJD demanded immediate action against defectors, asserting that such lapses erode democratic norms.

The seating arrangement controversy highlights the growing tensions in the Bihar Assembly. As opposition parties push for adherence to rules, the government faces accusations of partisanship and authoritarianism.
