Guwahati: Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma criticised the Congress leaders for holding procession and wearing black dress in the Assam assembly in protest against the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi.
Replying to the motion, Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said, “It’s unprecedented that we are expressing opinions on a judicial matter here. I know that a decision was taken at Congress legislature party last night to create noise here,”.
“The procession was taken out from the house of opposition leader. For the first time such thing happened in Assam assembly. How can we discuss the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi in Assam assembly. The verdict was given by Surat Court and the case was not related to Assam or any court of the state then why we will discuss Rahul Gandhi disqualification matter to the Assam assembly,” Sarma stated.
“Its a verdict of the court and the Congress MLAs are staging protest wearing black dress in Assam assembly. Are they challanging the Indian judiciary.This trend is not good for Indian Democracy. Their is a judicial process and if they are satisfied with the judgement of the court then they can go to Session court or High Court,” Sarma stated.
He further said, “We have crossed 75 years and celebrating Amrit Mahotsav but never witnessed such chaos in Assam Assembly. Do we ever criticised a judicial verdict? If a process was taken out from the house of opposition leader wearing black dress and obviously I would say. They have created a chaos in the Assembly and brought adjournment which is not good for a democracy,”.
Congress leader Debabrata Saikia said, “We want to send a resolution to the President of India requesting her to uphold the Constitution,”.
Saikia stated that the Constitution of India was violated for disqualification of Rahul Gandhi.
Later, when the House reassembled after a 15-minute adjournment, Assam CM insisted on giving a reply to the motion introduced by the opposition over the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi.
This was objected by the opposition saying that the “matter was over”.
