The Speaker Ram Niwas Goel has to adjourned the Delhi assembly for 45 minutes after members of the ruling AAP came into well of the House shouting slogans against the BJP in connection with the recent demolition of a Ravidas temple.

The APP leaders marched into the well of the House carrying posters and shouted slogans following which the session was adjourned for half an hour. "This House resolves that the Central Government has badly mishandled this issue by not supporting their cause in the Court of law which finally led to its unjustified and unfortunate demolition," alleged by AAP legislatures. The uproar continued when the session resumed after which the Assembly was further adjourned for 15 minutes. The Ravidas temple was demolished by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) earlier this month on the orders of the Supreme Court.

The protesters asked the central government to rebuild the temple. The protest had turned violent on Wednesday night, leaving several people, including policemen, injured.
