New Delhi: Opposition members are seen jostling security personnel in the Rajya Sabha in CCTV footage released today in the middle of an acrimonious standoff that peaked over the abrupt end to the monsoon session yesterday.
The opposition protests escalated when the General Insurance Business (Nationalisation) Amendment Bill was passed in the chaos despite demands to refer it to a select committee.
A 2.5-minute video showed slogan-shouting MPs at the centre of the house and uniformed marshals, who are in charge of security in parliament, apparently trying to restrain them.
Opposition members are also seen tearing papers into bits and flinging them. One MP is seen climbing a table.
The video emerged as the opposition protested today against the early end to the session and alleged manhandling of MPs.
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and nearly a dozen other opposition leaders gathered outside Parliament after a protest march and called on Rajya Sabha Chairman Venkaiah Naidu to file a complaint.
They alleged that "outsiders who were not part of Parliament security were brought in to manhandle opposition leaders and members, including women MPs".
"Without any provocation... outsiders, who were not part of Parliament security, were brought in to manhandle opposition leaders and members, including women MPs who were only protesting the government's conduct, highhandedness and muzzling of their voice," a joint statement said.
Shiv Sena's Sanjay Raut, a member of the Rajya Sabha, was quoted by news agency ANI as saying that the alleged physical bullying "felt like we were standing at the Pakistan border".
The government fielded seven ministers to counter the opposition offensive. The ministers accused the opposition of attacking the security personnel and demanded an apology.
"We want the strongest possible action against those who have violated the rules of the house. There were only 30 marshals - 18 men and 12 women - no one from outside were brought. We condemn their behavior and how they lowered the dignity of the house," said Minister Piyush Goel.
The Bill that the opposition objects to seeks to allow the government to cut its share in public sector insurance companies and enable more private sector participation. The opposition has accused the government of rushing several bills through without discussion amid protests this session.
