RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav also raised a point of order, taking objection to party MLAs Chetan Anand, Neelam Devi and Prahlad Yadav sitting among members of the ruling NDA, ahead of voting on a no-confidence motion against Speaker Awadh Bihari Chaudhary.
However, no ruling was given on the point of order by Deputy Speaker Maheshwar Hazari, who was in the Chair. CM Nitish Kumar moved a motion before the state assembly seeking confidence in the new government he has formed with the BJP.
Kumar, who heads the JD(U), moved the motion soon after the House passed the resolution for the removal of RJD’s Awadh Bihari Chaudhary as Speaker of the assembly.
