Opposition parties staged a protest on the steps of the Vidhan Bhavan complex here on Tuesday over the delay in appointing the leader of the opposition in the legislative assembly.Congress legislature party leader Vijay Wadettiwar alleged that the extended vacancy is against the legislative traditions and democratic norms. The post of the LoP in the assembly has been lying vacant since November 2024 when elections were held.
The protest coincided with Chief Justice of India Bhushan Gavai’s visit to the legislature complex.
“As the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court was arriving here, leaders of the Maha Vikas Aghadi protested on the steps of the legislature, condemning the government for not appointing the Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly,” Wadettiwar told reporters.
