Disorder Breaks Out in MCD Meeting as AAP and BJP Councillors Collide

A significant disruption occurred during the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) meeting on Monday, as councillors from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) engaged in a fiery exchange, shouting slogans against one another and interrupting the session.
In the midst of the uproar, papers flew through the air as councillors from both sides continued their chanting, leading to chaos in the Assembly.

Leader of Opposition (LOP) Raja Iqbal Singh accused AAP councillors of disrespecting the dignity of the House during the General Assembly meeting. He noted that when BJP members raised issues, AAP councillors reacted by causing further disruption and passing resolutions.

Singh criticized AAP for its alleged inability to effectively manage House proceedings over the past three years, claiming that Mayor Mahesh Kumar, elected in accordance with the Municipal Act, did not receive the respect he deserved upon entering the House. He pointed out that AAP councillors remained seated while BJP councillors stood in respect until the Mayor took his seat.

“This isn’t the first instance of disrespect towards the Mayor’s dignity,” Singh stated, asserting that councillors from the ruling party have frequently attempted to overstep their authority. He alleged that when BJP members highlighted these issues, instead of addressing the concerns, AAP councillors chose to escalate the disruption. He claimed that despite not holding a majority, AAP still managed to pass resolutions during the chaos.

Singh compared the current administration with the BJP’s previous tenure, stating that his party ran the House proceedings smoothly for 15 years, ensuring active participation from both ruling and opposition councillors.
“This clearly indicates that AAP leaders are more interested in personal gain and corruption than in serving the public,” he alleged.

National: One year after the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, the nation remembers the 26 people who lost their lives. The attack took place on April 22 at Baisaran, a popular tourist spot.

At first, reports said only five people were injured. Later, it became clear that it was one of the worst terror attacks in the region in decades. Terrorists came out of the forest and opened fire on tourists.

Survivors said the attackers separated men from women and children. They then shot the men at close range. Many victims were reportedly targeted after being asked about their religion.

A heartbreaking image of Himanshi Narwal sitting beside her husband’s body became a symbol of the tragedy. Her husband, a naval officer, was among those killed.

The group The Resistance front, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, claimed responsibility. The case was investigated by the National Investigation Agency.

After months of tracking, security forces launched Operation Mahadev. On July 28, 2025, all three terrorists were killed after a long search operation.

The attack remains a painful memory and a reminder of the need for strong security.
