How Did You Click Photo?” Chaos In Delhi Assembly Over AAP MLA’s Post

New Delhi:

The Delhi Assembly descended into chaos today over an Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA’s post on X during the proceedings of the House. MLA Jarnail Singh clicked a photo during the ongoing session and posted it on the social media platform, drawing flak from the MLAs of the ruling BJP. The assembly speaker issued a warning to him, stressing that clicking photos in the House amounts to a breach of privilege.

In his now-deleted post, the AAP MLA claimed that discussions were underway in the absence of ministers. “Who will answer on behalf of the government?” he wrote on X.

The post caused an uproar in the assembly, with the BJP MLAs seeking action against the AAP legislator from Tilak Nagar.

Parvesh Verma, Public Works Department (PWD) minister in the newly-formed cabinet led by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, said that it was “a serious matter” as clicking photos during the session is prohibited.
