The controversy began on Wednesday when Kunal Ghosh protested after allegedly being denied permission to participate in the debate.
The Speaker declined, saying there would be no discussion on the matter and describing the previous day's developments as "a blot" on the Assembly.
Kunal Ghosh walked up to the front of Akhruzzaman's seat and repeatedly questioned why his name had allegedly been dropped from the list of speakers.
The controversy stemmed from an ongoing case relating to the appointment of candidates in Physical Education and Work Education.
Kunal Ghosh explained that attending the programme was his duty as a legislator, but remaining there was a matter of personal conviction.
Dilip Ghosh also commented on how people have upgraded their skills in egging Trinamool Congress leaders, a mode of protest that have gained limelight ever since the Mamata Banerjee-led government was toppled from power in the recently-held assembly elections.
The CID had issued a notice to the Beleghata MLA in connection with the forged-signature case directing him to appear at Bhabani Bhaban on Sunday.
The Beleghata MLA has been directed to appear at Bhabani Bhaban on Sunday, June 14, while there is a possibility that he and TMC general secretary Abhishek Banerjee could be questioned together.
The notice was forwarded to the Alipore district court with instructions to either serve the notice directly to the Diamond Harbour MP or affix it to the door of his residence.
Mamata Banerjee gave a nod to Firhad Hakim’s proposal to resign from the mayoral post claimed by TMC leader Kunal Ghosh today.
