The Bihar Assembly was adjourned till lunch break today within minutes of commencement of the proceedings, amid opposition uproar over recent increase in incidents of communal violence in some parts of the state.
As Speaker Vijay Kumar Chaudhary took the Chair, RJD MLAs Samir Kumar Mahaseth and Shakti Singh Yadav moved their adjournment motions alleging that "atmosphere of communal harmony has been vitiated in the state and an organisation is trying to sow the seeds of hatred against members of a particular community.
When the Speaker asked the legislators to raise the matter at an appropriate time and allow the Question Hour to take place, Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav said, The issue being raised is very important."
