Congress MLAs Barred Entry, Protest Against AAP in Punjab Assembly Session
Tensions escalated in the Punjab Legislative Assembly as Congress MLAs were barred from entering, leading to protests and clashes with AAP members. The blockade followed the suspension of Congress MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira. Congress leaders condemned the move, alleging procedural irregularities, while AAP accused the opposition of political disruption. Congress MLAs protested by burning AAP's broom symbol and boycotted the session's final day. The Speaker clarified only suspended members could be barred, amid ongoing disputes over law-and-order and governance issues.
