Bihar MLAs Attacked By ‘Police’ In Assembly

Published by

In an unprecedented attack, legislators, including men and women, were dragged and manhandled by the “police” inside the Assembly in Bihar during a protest against a Bill that gives more power to the state police force.

Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD) MLA Satish Das was carried on a stretcher from Bihar Assembly after he was ‘attacked’ by the police. Women MLAs of the Opposition parties were carried out of the Assembly by the women police.

Bihar leader of the Opposition Tejashwi Yadav alleged that unarmed MLAs were thrashed inside the house and “manhandled by police and local goons”. Sharing the photo of Satish Das on the stretcher, Yadav accused Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s government of allowing the police into the Assembly.

He tweeted in Hindi: “My revolutionary fellow MLA, Satish Das, who belongs to a poor family, became a victim of hooliganism of Nitish Kumar. He suffered a head injury. The picture is proof.”

The MLAs of the Opposition parties created ruckus over harsh provisions in the Bihar Special Armed Police Bill 2021 and the Assembly was adjourned five times. They demanded immediate repeal of the Bill and did not allow Assembly Speaker Vijay Kumar Sinha from moving out of his chamber.

The Opposition leader’s mother Rabri Devi tweeted a video of a woman MLA, Anita Devi, being dragged by women security personnel. “The sparks that you have set off today, these sparks will burn your black governance to ashes tomorrow. Bihar will calculate and that too, soon,” she tweeted in Hindi.
