Ruckus in Odisha Assembly over fertiliser crisis
The Political and Business Daily
|September 20, 2025
THE Odisha Assembly on Friday witnessed noisy scenes as MLAs of the Opposition BJD demanded a detailed discussion on fertiliser crisis during the ongoing kharif season that has prompted farmers to hit the streets.
-
Even before the House assembled at 10.30 am for Question Hour, the BJD MLAs were present in the well holding placards and raising slogans against the BJP government, accusing it of being “anti-farmer".
The House could function for only four minutes, with Speaker Surama _ Padhy adjourning the proceedings till 4 pm as her repeated requests to the agitating members to return to their seats fell on deaf ears.
Though she allowed School and Mass Education Minister Nityananda Gond to reply to a question of BJP member Tankadhar Tripathy, nothing could be heard amid the din.
