Bhubaneswar, Aug. 29: The monsoon session of the Assembly, which concluded today, witnessed an unprecedented scenario.

The Assembly passed nine legislative proposals in the absence of the Opposition parties - the Congress and the BJP. It also saw Opposition leader Narasingha Mishra staging a dharna on the well of the House, which is also a rare phenomenon.

The 11-day session was adjourned sine die today by Speaker Niranjan Pujari, who has been accused by the Opposition parties of running the House in a partisan manner.

The Congress MLAs have sought the intervention of governor S.C. Jamir, urging him not to put his stamp of approval to the nine bills passed by the House.

All eyes are now focussed on Jamir, who has reportedly called the Speaker to ascertain his version of the proceedings at the House.

Congress and BJP members had boycotted the Assembly proceedings in protest against the alleged violation of rules.

The House passed two bills - Odisha Underground Pipelines, Cable and Duct (acquisition of right of user in land) Bill and the Odisha Education (Amendment) Bill in absence of the Opposition today. Earlier in the morning, the Congress legislators, who had been boycotting the Assembly proceedings since Thursday night, staged a dharna to protest against the alleged undemocratic attitude of the government. Opposition leader Narasingha Mishra, who led the sit-in, alleged that the chief minister had enforced an undeclared emergency in the state.

The BJP legislators boycotted the proceedings for the second successive day today.

The ruling BJD, however, dismissed the Opposition allegations and maintained that the business of the House was conducted in accordance with the rules. "It was the Opposition who tried to disrupt the proceedings," said BJD spokesman Samir Ranjan Dash.

During the short session, the House deliberated on issues such as the Nabakalebar controversy, the alleged patronage of the ruling party to the self-styled spiritual guru Santosh Raula alias Sarathi baba and the police excess in Kendrapara, along with the deteriorating law and order situation. The Opposition parties also demanded a CBI probe into the Sarathi baba episode, which was turned down by the government.

However, discussion on the case involving former DGP Prakash Mishra, in which the high court has indicted the state vigilance department for framing the senior IPS officer and the Supreme Court subsequently rejected the state government's special leave petition, could not be discussed. The Speaker ruled that the House could not discuss anything in favour of or against a government servant.
