Clash in West Bengal Assembly Sparks Political Uproar

West Bengal Assembly Speaker Biman Bandyopadhyay directed the House secretary not to provide proceedings documents to BJP legislators after protests and document tearing. The BJP's proposal to address alleged temple attacks was rejected, causing a walkout and protests led by Opposition Leader Suvendu Adhikari, who criticized the speaker's decision.

Biman Bandyopadhyay, Speaker of the West Bengal Assembly, instructed the House secretary not to share any documents related to the assembly proceedings with BJP legislators. This decision followed a dramatic session where BJP members disrupted activities by tearing documents after their call for a discussion on temple attacks was denied.

The refusal of a bill concerning child rights and the blocking of an adjournment motion fueled the BJP's discontent. Suvendu Adhikari, the Opposition Leader, deemed the speaker's move an unprecedented action in Indian politics and accused the ruling party of sidelining democratic processes.

BJP legislators are now planning broader protests in response to what they describe as oppressive governance. Meanwhile, accusations of communal policing practices and alleged attacks on Hindu communities have further intensified the political scene in West Bengal.
