The Punjab Assembly was adjourned for a brief period on Friday after Parliamentary Affairs Minister Brahm Mohindra informed the House that Shiromani Akali Dal MLAs allegedly gheraoed the residence of Finance Minister Manpreet Singh Badal.
During Question Hour, Mohindra said that Badal could not reach in time as his residence had been gheraoed by SAD legislators.
He expressed fear that if this situation continued, the budget could not be presented.
Mohindra sought to bring a privilege motion against SAD MLAs.
"It is an unconstitutional situation," he said while adding, "It is a budget for Punjab and meant for people of the state."
