Chandigarh, March 4

The Budget session of the Punjab Assembly resumed on Monday with pandemonium prevailing in the House as Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann along with AAP MLAs engaged in heated arguments with the opposition legislators.

Unruly scenes broke out in the Assembly after CM Mann handed over “a lock and key” to the Speaker, asking him to lock the Opposition inside the House so that they don’t walk out during a discussion.

Leader of Opposition and Congress MLA Partap Singh Bajwa along with other party MLAs strongly objected to Mann’s statement. Later, a heated argument took place between the AAP and Congress legislators in the House.

Mann, on the second day of the Budget session, slammed opposition MLAs for disruption of Governor’s address on the opening day of the session on March 1 and demanded a discussion in the House.

Earlier, Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan, in a deviation from the practice of beginning the day’s session with question hour, allowed discussion on Governor’s address on request from the treasury benches.
