Opposition leader Vijender Gupta was today marshalled out of Delhi assembly while three other BJP legislators staged a walkout to register their protest after their request for a discussion on "water crises" in the city was turned down.
As the House proceedings began, opposition members showed bottles of contaminated water allegedly being supplied in various areas of Delhi.
Gupta, and two other BJP MLAs, O P Sharma and Jagdish Pradhan, trooped into the Well of the House demanding discussion on alleged water crises in the city.
Gupta and Sharma went near the chair of Speaker Ram Niwas Goel, showing him bottles of contaminated water.
As Gupta turned the mike, Speaker got angry and ordered him to be marshalled out of the House.
The Speaker also suspended Gupta for the day from the House proceedings.
To register their protest, other BJP MLAs also walked out of the House.
