Rebel AAP MLA Kapil Mishra was today marshalled out of the Delhi Assembly after he went near the Speaker's chair and tore a copy of the House's business list, demanding removal of a scheduled discussion regarding "alleged attempt to incite communal disturbance on pretext of Ramnavami procession".
Later, all four BJP MLAs, including Leader of Opposition Vijender Gupta, O P Sharma, M S Sirsa and Jagdish Pradhan, staged a walk out.
Mishra, an MLA from Karawal Nagar, questioned the need for a discussion on the issue when there is no incident of "communal disturbance" in Delhi, but ruling AAP MLAs insisted on it.
