Jammu, February 11 The Jammu and Kashmir Assembly witnessed noisy scenes for the second consecutive day on Wednesday as BJP members demanded an apology from Chief Minister Omar Abdullah over his "unparliamentary" remarks against them before walking out of the House in protest.
As the House assembled for the day, BJP legislator Sham Lal Sharma stood up and demanded that the Leader of the House should apologize or a statement be issued by the speaker in the absence of the chief minister.
Speaker Abdul Rahim Rather tried to persuade the BJP members to allow the Question Hour to continue and raise the issue when the Leader of the House is present.
Health Minister Sakeena Itoo also accused BJP members of using unparliamentary words, particularly against Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary.
Choudhary suggested that the chair should examine all the unparliamentary words used by both sides and remove them from the records to continue the proceedings without any disruption.
Leader of the Opposition Sunil Sharma opposed this suggestion and refused to cooperate, and later led the walkout, chanting slogans like "derogatory sarkar hai hai" and "unparliamentary sarkar hai hai" along with "Bharat Mata ki Jai".
