The Rajasthan assembly on Thursday witnessed an uproar over an alleged attack on a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) shakha in Bundi district.
Raising the issue during Zero Hour, BJP MLA Madan Dilawar said such incidents cannot be tolerated.
When Leader of Opposition Gulab Chand Kataria tried to say something, parliamentary affairs minister Shanti Dhairwal objected, saying under assembly rules none can speak other than the person who raised the issue.
This led to the uproar in the house, with BJP MLAS coming came near the well. Opposition MLAS raised slogans against the government.
Kataria alleged that the government was trying to protect the culprits and should give a reply.
The Opposition also alleged that unruly comment has been made from the ruling side.

Kataria said: “The matter is serious and people are angry. If the state government has taken any action they should inform the house.”
Earlier, BJP MLA Dilawar informed the house that girls of a community were playing at a park in Bundi on Wednesday evening. When some RSS cadres came to the park to hold shakha, members of that community attacked them.
