Congress workers clashed with police in Bhubaneswar after 14 party MLAs were suspended for disrupting Odisha Assembly proceedings. Protesters attempted to breach barricades, prompting police to use lathicharge and water cannons. Visuals showed workers throwing chairs as security forces intervened. The opposition condemned the move as "undemocratic," while BJD MLAs sprinkled 'Ganga Jal' in the Assembly, alleging police presence "polluted" it. Congress leader Bhakta Charan Das urged peaceful protests. Authorities deployed 80 police platoons, including 10 women’s units, as preventive arrests were made. The standoff continues.
