SRINAGAR — Jammu Kashmir Legislative Assembly Speaker Abdul Rahim Rather on Friday announced that he will deliver his ruling on the joint resolution for Article 370 restoration submitted by five MLAs at a later time.
However, Sajjad Gani Lone expressed his desire to have the resolution tabled immediately, citing the urgency of the matters it addresses. Lone’s call for action prompted BJP lawmakers to create ruckus, as they were already protesting against the resolution passed by the Assembly a few days ago.
Meanwhile, at least 10 BJP members were marshalled out after they created pandemonium despite the Speaker’s request to maintain the dignity of the House. Marshals dragged out the BJP lawmakers after which other BJP members left the House amid sloganeering.
BJP members are not allowing the House to function smoothly after the NC moved a resolution on the special status that was passed by a majority vote.
