MP assembly adjourned thrice over murder of BJP leader
Bhopal, July 25: Madhya Pradesh assembly Speaker Sriniwas Tiwari today adjourned the house thrice after main opposition BJP members created a furore to press their demand for an immediate discussion on yesterday`s killing of BJP leader Vishnu Mangal in broad day light in Gwalior.
Tiwari told the BJP members that he had received a notice for an adjournment motion on Mangal's killing but added that he was willing to get the issue discussed under a calling attention motion either tomorrow or on Monday.
When the house re-assembled, the leader of opposition Dr
Gauri Shanker Shejwar began speaking on the incident but
Tiwari pointed out that since he had already given his ruling
in the matter nothing can be said about it.
And despite this when Shejwar went on speaking, Tiwari
adjourned the house for 30 minutes but the noisy scenes
continued even after the break and this led him to adjourn the
house for lunch an hour before the scheduled lunch break.
Mangal, well-known Jeweller and former president of the
district BJP unit, was shot dead by two unidentified persons
while he was going to his shop at Murar in the city.
