Ruckus in Assembly over RJD MLA’s remarks on Smriti Irani’

 


Patna,(BiharTimes): BJP MLAs created ruckus in the Bihar Assembly after the RJD MLA from Samastipur, Akhtar-ul-Islam Shaheen, commented on the educational qualification of the Union Human Resources Development Minister, Smriti Irani.

Angry over Rashtriya Janata Dal legislator Akhtarul Islam Shaheen's statement that Irani was a "mere matric pass and no other qualification than being a contestant in “ Miss India”.

Protesting against this statement some BJP legislators jumped into the well of the house andthrew chairs and heckled each other and shouted slogans. They also said that Smriti Irani is not the member of the House so reference should not be made about her.

However, later Shaheen said that he has not regretted whatever he has said in the house and continue to stand on it. “I have raised many questions to BJP in my speech that infuriated its MLAs” added Shaheen

"It was a deliberate attempt by the RJD member to make such a statement that was not connected with any discussion or debate," Yadav said.

Later, RJD legislature party leader Abdul Bari Siddiqui expressed regret over any such remark made by his party member.
