Acrimony, walkout and forced adjournment mar Rajasthan Assembly proceedings · thestatesman.com

The Rajasthan Assembly had a very heated and chaotic session on Friday.

The main issues were about old and broken government school buildings, problems with social security pensions, and some unauthorised forms found in Tehsil headquarters.

The members from the ruling party and the opposition started arguing and shouting at each other.

The opposition even walked out of the assembly because they were not happy with the government's answers.

The speaker had to adjourn the session for lunch because of all the chaos.

The opposition wanted the government to investigate the issues, but the government said some of them were not their responsibility.

The speaker said he would make a decision after talking to others.
