Delhi Assembly Uproar Over Jurisdiction in Law and Order Debate

In a heated session, opposition AAP MLAs objected to Speaker Vijender Gupta's statement dismissing law and order discussions in the Delhi Assembly. Gupta maintained such issues are beyond its jurisdiction, while AAP accused the central government of hiding its failures. The debate coincided with the first budget session.

The Delhi Assembly experienced a heated debate as opposition AAP MLAs voiced objections to Speaker Vijender Gupta's assertions that law and order matters fall outside the assembly's jurisdiction.

Responding to Leader of Opposition Atishi, Gupta rejected Special Mention notices concerning the capital's crime issues, arguing they were beyond Delhi government's scope.

Amidst the eighth Assembly's first budget session, Atishi accused the central government of suppressing crime-related discussions to mask its governance failures, a claim Gupta dismissed as politically motivated.
