The Bihar Police on Tuesday detained Leader of Opposition RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav as chaos ensued in and out of the Bihar Assembly, amid Opposition-led protest against the Bihar Special Armed Police Bill, 2021.
The contentious bill purportedly seeks to arm the Bihar Military Police, rename, and empower the force to arrest people without a warrant.
Women MLAs of the Opposition were being carried out of the Assembly building by women security personnel. The MLAs were refusing to allow Assembly Speaker Vijay Kumar Sinha to step out of his chamber.
