Congress legislators in the Rajasthan Assembly today boycotted the Question Hour, demanding action against two BJP MLAs for their alleged derogatory remarks against Rahul Gandhi.
As soon as the House assembled, Leader of Opposition Rameshwar Dudi raised the demand for action against BJP MLAs Kailash Choudhary and Gyan Dev Ahuja.
When there was no response from Speaker Kailash Meghwal, the Congress members trooped into the Well of the House. Ten minutes later, they boycotted the Question Hour and walked out of the House.
