BHOPAL: Leader of Opposition (LoP) Gopal Bhargava, commenting on the alleged delay in reinstating the membership of Prahlad Lodhi, said that it is insult to the people of Pavai that assembly speaker is showing obstinacy in reinstating the membership of Lodhi, despite the High Court giving stay.
Bhargava said Lodhi is unable to fulfill his duties as his membership is not reinstated by assembly secretariat. The date for applying for question is also passing and in this situation, Lodhi will not be able to raise the problems of the people of his constituency, which is injustice to the people of Pavai constituency.
The LoP claimed that he has come to know that assembly secretariat has blocked the account of Lodhi and he could not ask questions through online mode. His written questions will not be recognized. The LoP alleged that the decision of the assembly speaker is taken at the behest of the state government which is totally wrong.
