The Budget Session of the State Assembly transformed into a battleground today as opposition members forced an early deadlock. Chaos erupted the moment Question Hour began, with lawmakers storming the well of the House to protest a perceived crisis in patient safety across state hospitals.
Amidst deafening slogans and heated exchanges, the opposition leveled heavy criticism against the government's healthcare management. The primary demands included:
Rapid policy shifts to ensure better security and care for patients.
The formal resignation of Health Minister Mukesh Mahaling.
The ruckus effectively paralyzed legislative proceedings, making it impossible to address the scheduled agenda. Facing an uncontrollable environment, the Speaker was forced to adjourn the House until 11:30 AM.
