Raipur. On the second day of the assembly session, there was a heated argument and uproar between the ruling and opposition parties regarding the Balodabazar violence. In fact, after the statement of former minister Ajay Chandrakar, the Congress became aggressive. Ajay Chandrakar heated up the atmosphere by saying that the Congress party was involved in the Balodabazar incident. Congress leaders strongly objected to this, and also asked the BJP MLA to apologize for the statement, the decision of which they left to Aansdi BJP MLA Ajay Chandrakar said during the discussion that two Congress MLAs were involved in the Balodabazar incident. The opposition raised objections to this. Former Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel said that before accusing any MLA, the Chair should be informed about it. Also, permission should be taken for this. Was permission taken before accusing the MLAs? On this, the Chair, citing the rules, said that no member’s name was taken during the speech, so any objection to this is not justified.
Congress brought the innocent society forward
Along with this, former minister Ajay Chandrakar made a big allegation that Congress conspired to destabilize the Vishnu Dev government by bringing forward an innocent person and perpetrated the Balodabazar incident. Congress MLAs strongly objected to the statement and started sloganeering in the House. On this, the proceedings of the House were adjourned for 5 minutes.
As soon as the proceedings of the House resumed, Bhupesh Baghel said that whenever Ajay Chandrakar speaks in the House, the opposition will always boycott it. Ajay Chandrakar stuck to his point and said that why is the police summoning Congress MLA Devendra Yadav in the Balodabazar incident? The names of other big Congress leaders are also included, but they are not members of the Assembly, so I am not taking their names. As far as apologizing is concerned, I leave it to the Chair, whatever he says.
Congress can attack below the belt
Ajay Chandrakar maintained his aggressive stance and said that if the Congress MLA is not involved in the Balodbazar incident, then the Congress should clarify it. Congress MLA Devendra Yadav was called by the police for questioning three times. A Congress leader provided a tent. The Congress does not have the moral strength. If anyone can attack below the belt, then it is only the Congress party. The credibility of the government should also be visible.
He said that the announcement of investigation of Telibandha divider was made in this house, but no action was taken on it. Action should be taken against such officers. We have suffered the practices of the Congress government. A relative of a BJP MLA had to stay in jail for three months during the Congress government. Bhupesh Baghel cannot teach me parliamentary words. Vishnu’s good governance means proper development. The Say government has announced investigation of many important cases. After investigation, all these cases will be found to be authentic.
BJP MLA waved the poster
Earlier, during the discussion on the supplementary budget in the House, Congress MLA Umesh Patel mentioned the Balodabazar violence. Speaking on the appropriation, he said why should we give money to the police for the firing in Raipur, for the violence in Balodabazar. BJP MLAs objected to Umesh Patel’s speech. Meanwhile, BJP MLA Rakesh Sen waved the poster of the Congress MLA and the Balodabazar violence. The opposition strongly objected to the waving of the poster.
There was a heated argument between the ruling party and the opposition. The Speaker expressed strong displeasure over the waving of posters and said that no member can wave posters in the House. While issuing instructions to all the members, he said that it is mandatory for all the members to follow the parliamentary tradition.
