NEW DELHI: There was ruckus in the Jammu and Kashmir assembly on Monday after PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti threw a microphone at Speaker Mohammad Akbar Lone.
The incident occurred after PDP leaders started raising slogans over the Shopian incident in which two women were raped and murdered in May.
The Speaker ordered the dismissal of the PDP MLAs from the floor of the House. The MLAs, however, refused to leave and police officials had to forcibly escort them out of the assembly.
PDP MLAs led by Mehbooba Mufti are now staging a sit-in dharna outside the assembly.
Meanwhile, the bail applications of J&K police officers Javed Iqbal Mattoo and Rohit Baskotra, arrested in connection with the sensational Shopian murder case, will come up for hearing on Monday at a court in Shopian.
The pleas of the two officers were moved on Sunday before the sessions court by senior Supreme Court lawyer Asim Mehrotra who flew into Srinagar to argue the case on behalf of Mattoo and Baskotra.
