A heated exchange erupted in the Gujarat Legislative Assembly on Tuesday between BJP and Congress members after the Speaker denied permission for a short discussion on LPG and petrol shortages amid the West Asia war. BJP labelled the Congress demand a premeditated conspiracy to divert attention from the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) Bill tabled that day. The Speaker rejected it, noting a prior notice under Rule 116 had been accepted.
