He will complain to the Hemant government about this assault. ADM Deepak Kumar Dubey, who was present there in this whole matter, has clearly said that action will be taken against those who have taken the law in their hands today.

A day before, on Wednesday too, there was a lot of ruckus here. Police lathi-charged BJP workers protesting the move to allot a special room for offering prayers inside the Jharkhand Assembly. Several BJP workers, including state unit chief Deepak Prakash, were reportedly injured. On Monday, BJP MLAs raised slogans of 'Jai Shri Ram', 'Har Har Mahadev' inside the Jharkhand Assembly in protest against the allotment of a room by the Speaker to offer Namaz during the assembly session.

In fact, on Friday, an order has been issued by the Speaker of the Jharkhand Legislative Assembly to allot a room for Namaz. "Room number TW 348 is allotted as a prayer hall for offering prayers in the new assembly building," the order said. Controversy has started since this decision.
