Mah riots rock LS: Cong, BJP heated exchanges

New Delhi, Jan 3 (UNI) The Lok Sabha on Wednesday witnessed heated exchanges between the Opposition and the treasury benches when Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge made a blistering attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party regimes both at the Centre and in Maharashtra for the violence that rocked the streets of the western state and demanded a probe into the entire episode by a sitting Supreme Court judge.
Raising the issue of 'caste violence' during Zero Hour, the Congress floor leader said the ongoing violence in the western state was a "matter of concern" as there has been increase in bloodshed and atrocities against Dalits both in "rural and urban" parts of the country.
The Lok Sabha was adjourned for about 10 minutes following disruption caused by Congress members and others over violence in Pune and other parts of Maharashtra.
There is no row at position 0.
