Delhi Assembly adjourned amid uproar over CM Kejriwal’s arrest
AAP MLAs demanded the release of Arvind Kejriwal and Opposition BJP MLAs his resignation.
BJP legislators Vijender Gupta and Manjinder Sirsa were marshalled out of the Delhi Assembly here on Monday.
Speaker Ram Niwas Goel ordered the MLAs to be marshalled out after they repeatedly disrupted proceedings of the House and did not allow Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia to speak.
Referring to the disruptions, Goel said: “This is murder of democracy and Delhi’s citizens are watching it.”
