The monsoon session of Bihar Legislative Assembly came to an end today on a stormy note with Opposition MLAs creating ruckus over the police lathicharge on Dalit students here yesterday.
Speaker Vijay Kumar Chaudhary adjourned the House sine die bringing the curtains down on the five-day Monsoon Session.
On the last day today, Opposition members trooped in to the Well demanding action against police officers for lathicharge on Dalit students during a protest yesterday.
Chaudhary asked Opposition to allow him to take up private resolutions of the members but adjourned the House sine die as his pleas went unheard.
