The BJP MLCs while holding copy of a newspaper staged protest in the Upper House soon after its proceedings began here on Thursday. The BJP members were referring to the warnng of warning by Burhan Wani if State Government goes ahead with the establishment of separate Pandit colonies and Sainik Colony.
The BJP members said the warning by Burhan is a serious issue and the government should not only condemn it but also issue a statement. They also raised slogans against Hizb inside the House. However, there was no word by the Government and the BJP members later sat down silently.
