AAP MLAs behave like goons in Delhi Assembly, beat up, drag Kapil Mishra
May 31, 2017
New Delhi: Arvind Kejriwal led Aam Admi Party MLAs in Delhi Assembly today behaved like goons. As sacked minister Kapil Mishra held out a banner with allegations of corruption against Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, the AAP MLAs heckled and dragged him. Mishra came out of the assembly house with tears in eyes and described how he was beaten up.
Party MLAs, including Madan Lal, Jarnail Singh, were seen lunging at Mishra and dragging him as he raised a poster referring to the allegations. Speaker Ram Niwas Goel ordered him to be marshalled out of the House and later adjourned the House which was convened to pass the state GST bill, for 15 minutes.
Mishra said he was not allowed to speak. The moment he attempted to speak, four to five AAP MLAs started hitting him. It was perhaps for the first time that MLAs have been used to muffle a dissenting voice inside the House. Mishra said the MLAs rushed towards him after Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia prompted them to do so.
Mishra said he would put the papers in public at 5.00 pm on Saturday at Constitution Club as he was prevented to do the same in the assembly today.
