Senior Congress MLA and party chief whip Taraprasad Bahinipati was less defiant, but also said his party would defy the rule if the Speaker does not allow members to raise important issues in the House. “No one wants din inside the House. But if the Speaker acts in a partisan manner and doesn’t allow discussion on important issues, we will certainly not sit quietly. He must remember that he is not the Speaker of BJD, but of the whole of Odisha. If he keeps his side of the bargain, we will not create a scene inside the House. But if he tries to stifle the Opposition voice and run the House as per the convenience of the ruling party, there would be pandemonium,” thundered the Jeypore MLA, who has always been at the forefront of protests inside the House.
