In a first, BJP holds ‘Parallel Assembly’ in LA premises, Sham Lal acts as ‘Speaker’

Ishtiyaq Kar

Srinagar, Nov 08 (KINS) Soon after the BJP MLAs were marshalled out from the Assembly, all the 28 MLAs of BJP Friday staged a parallel Assembly in the laws of LA complex Srinagar where party leader Sham Lal Sharma acted as the “Speaker of the House” and other members spoke the way they spoke in the real House.
Sitting in a Circle in the laws of Assembly complex, Sham Lal Sharma sat on a Chair to look like the Speaker of the House while other BJP MLAs spoke one by one as if “real assembly was going on.” Media captured the BJP legislators holding parallel Assembly.
“The NC wants bloodshed in Kashmir again. I want to thank Speaker Abdur Rahim Rather for allowing us to hold this real Assembly,” he said as per news agency KINS.
Sham Lal Sharma said now he calls upon BJP MLA R S Pathania to speak. “This the real Assembly, not the one that is inside. We came here to raise the people’s issues but we saw business being changed. We came here to speak at the LG’s address but we saw a resolution on special status,” he said. Pathania said that before bringing any resolution, 15 advance notice is supposed to be given to the members of the House. Other members of the BJP spoke one by one giving an impression that a parallel Assembly was going on—(KINS)
