SP MLA Subhash Pasai faints in UP assembly while protesting

There was utter chaos in the Uttar Pradesh Vidhan Sabha on Tuesday during the the first day of the Budget session. MLAs of the Samajwadi Party and the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) hurled paper balls at Governor Ram Naik while he was addressing the House.

Samajwadi Party MLA Subhash Pasai fainted while protesting in the assembly. He was given first aid and is being treated.

Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath condemned the act and said the SP-BSP legislators were acting like hooligans in the House.

The SP-BSP MLAs were protesting against the delay in payment of sugarcane farmers by mills in Uttar Pradesh.
