SP, BSP walk out of UP Assembly on women’s issue
Lucknow: The opposition Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party on Friday walked out of the Vidhan Sabha after Speaker Hriday Narain Dixit refused to allow a debate during Question Hour on “increasing atrocities on women” in the state.
As soon as the House assembled for the day, Congress members demanded the debate on the issue after suspension of rules and the SP members supported it.
Leader of Opposition Ram Govind Chaudhary said that the issue was of prime importance and that the police had started booking innocent women participating in peaceful protests against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act in the state.
The Speaker ordered for expunction of all remarks from the House proceedings and announced adjournment of the Assembly for 20 minutes.
Following this, Congress MLAs walked into the well of the House, with opposition members sloganeering against the Yogi government.
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Suresh Khanna stood up after the adjournment was announced and claimed that law and order in Uttar Pradesh had improved ‘1,000 times’.
He accused the opposition of supporting criminals and said that the state government had always supported the victims.
The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
