The Bihar assembly was adjourned till 2 pm on Tuesday, following a ruckus created by opposition members who demanded a discussion on the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.

Within minutes of commencement of the proceedings, Speaker Nand Kishor Yadav adjourned the House till lunch as repeated pleas for order failed to pacify the opposition MLAs, many of whom had come wearing black badges as a mark of protest.

The special intensive revision of electoral rolls, which is being carried out only in Bihar, where assembly polls are due in about a couple of months, has been opposed by the INDIA bloc.
