Disorder erupted in the MCD House as BJP council members protested the fire incident and stray cattle attacks
New Delhi: The chaos in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) House on Monday reached unprecedented levels as BJP councillors took to the floor to protest against the recent fire incident in Alipur and a stray-cattle attack in Khanpur. The atmosphere was tense as the session, which lasted less than half an hour, began with Leader of House Mukesh Goel expressing his heartfelt condolences for the tragic loss of 11 lives in the devastating fire.
The grief-stricken families of the victims were present in the gallery, their tear-stained faces reflecting the immense pain and sorrow they were going through. As Goel spoke, his voice filled with empathy and compassion, the entire House fell silent, acknowledging the magnitude of the tragedy that had befallen the city.
However, the somber atmosphere was soon shattered as BJP councillors, fueled by anger and frustration, rose from their seats and started shouting slogans demanding justice for the victims. Their voices echoed through the chamber, creating a cacophony that reverberated off the walls. The chaos escalated as some councillors even resorted to banging their fists on the tables, demanding immediate action from the ruling party.
Amidst the chaos, an opposition member, representing Leader of Opposition Raja Iqbal Singh, managed to grab the attention of the House. With a calm and composed demeanor, he conveyed his sympathies to the families of the fire victims and the individual who tragically lost his life in the Khanpur cattle attack. His words resonated with the grief-stricken families, offering them a glimmer of solace in the midst of the chaos.
Despite the opposition’s attempt to bring some semblance of order to the House, the chaos continued unabated. The ruling party members, determined to make their voices heard, refused to back down. The session, which was supposed to address crucial issues and propose solutions, was reduced to a mere spectacle of political grandstanding.
As the clock ticked away, it became evident that the chaos had overshadowed any possibility of meaningful discussion or resolution. The House, once a symbol of democratic governance, had transformed into a battleground of conflicting ideologies and personal agendas.
The incident served as a stark reminder of the deep-rooted divisions and political rivalries that plague the Municipal Corporation of Delhi. It highlighted the urgent need for unity and cooperation among the councillors to address the pressing issues faced by the city.
