Assam Budget

Guwahati, March 14: Raijor Dal chief and MLA of Sivasagar assembly constituency Akhil Gogoi got suspended on Monday from the budget session of the Assam Legislative Assembly for apparently disrupting the proceedings of the house.

Speaker Biswajit Daimary suspended MLA Akhil Gogoi for allegedly trying to disrupt the Governor’s address on the first day of the Budget Session of the Assam Assembly.

During the Governor’s address, MLA Gogoi shouted asked for the 1lakh jobs that were promised by the Bjp government before the election.

The Sivasagar legislator was even seen protesting with a placard in his hand.

Speaker Daimary had repeatedly requested Gogoi to raise the matter after the Governor’s speech, but the legislature did not relent. The Speaker immediately suspended Akhil Gogoi from the House.

“The Governor’s address in the Assembly was very disappointing and irrelevant with no clear policies and agendas. Apart from regular functioning of the government, there is no clear declaration on issues related to the people of Assam,” Gogoi told reporters outside the Assembly.
