Taking a dig at PDP for forming government with BJP, NC member Aga Ruhullah said "PDP had formed government with communal forces who were behind killings in Gujarat, fall of Babri Masjid... We kept them away from J-K, but you brought the communal forces in power in J&K".
As he took name of the Prime Minister in connection with the 2002 Gujarat riots, BJP members objected to it drawing verbal duels and noisy scenes in the House for some time.
There were also verbal duals over it between Aga, Engineer Rashid and Ravinder Raina. Later BJP members observed silence even as Aga was targeting them for being communal.
Devinder Rana and M Jabbar of NC resorted to protests while coming close to the well of the House by raising the issue of the disengagement of contractual staff and stoppage of scholarship to over 5,000 students.
Earlier Engineer Rashid walked into well of the House protesting over BJP chief Amit shah's statement and later staged a walkout.
