Fight started as soon as congratulations were given… Clash between Speaker Vijendra Gupta and Atishi in the assembly on the very first day
Vijendra Gupta and Atishi
Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly Atishi congratulated Speaker Vijender Gupta. But at the same time she targeted BJP. She said that the party’s anti-Dalit and anti-Sikh mentality has been exposed to everyone. The pictures of Baba Saheb Ambedkar and Shaheed Bhagat Singh have been removed from every office of the Delhi government.
The proceedings of the first day of the Delhi Assembly session were tumultuous. Vijender Gupta was elected the Speaker of the Delhi Assembly. Chief Minister Rekha Gupta had proposed his name. Earlier, Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena administered the oath of pro tem speaker to Arvinder Singh Lovely.
During this, Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly Atishi congratulated Speaker Vijender Gupta. But along with this, she targeted the BJP.
Atishi said that congratulations to you on becoming the Speaker. But I am saying this with great pain that the picture of Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar has been removed from the Chief Minister’s Office of Delhi. This shows the anti-Dalit, anti-Sikh and anti-national mentality of the BJP. There was an uproar in the House on this statement of Atishi.
On this, a debate started between the Aam Aadmi Party and BJP MLAs. Vijender Gupta told Atishi that she was trying to spoil the cordial atmosphere of the House. But seeing that the uproar was not subsiding, Vijender Gupta asked Atishi to sit down. But when this did not happen, the Assembly Speaker said that I strongly condemn Atishi’s behavior. She is trying to spoil the atmosphere without any reason. The House will not tolerate this kind of attitude of the opposition.
Vijendra Gupta said that I think the opposition does not want the House to run smoothly. I warn that if the opposition violates the rules and laws or tries to create chaos, it will not be tolerated. This behavior is reprehensible.
Speaker Gupta said that I am warning again that you are hurting the dignity of the House. I want to tell these anarchist people to improve their behavior. The proceedings of the House on the very first day are being disrupted like this. The dignity of the House is being hurt. I request the people to take their seats and let the House run in a dignified manner.
