Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA O.P. Sharma was on Tuesday escorted out of the Delhi Assembly by marshals after a row with the Speaker Ram Niwas Goel.

"If Kejriwal thinks that the MHA notification is not right, they should reach the court. AAP MLAs were using unparliamentarily language against the Lieutenant Governor and Prime Minister Narendra Modi," Sharma said after his eviction.

According to reports, Sharma and two other BJP MLAs were protesting against the Speaker's criticism of Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung while discussing the notification issued by the MHA.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Government has convened a two-day emergency session of the Legislative Assembly beginning.
