<h1>Assembly Disrupted: Protests Over Crimes Against Women and Community Justice Lead to Multiple Adjournments</h1> The Odisha Assembly faced disruptions as opposition Congress and BJD members protested by playing gongs and raising slogans over various issues, leading to five adjournments until 4 pm. The Congress demanded a House Committee to investigate crimes against women since June 2024, while the BJD protested the government's alleged failure to protect women and ensure justice for ST, SC, and OBC communities. Despite an all-party meeting, no resolution was reached. The protests have consistently disrupted proceedings since March 18. Speaker Surama Padhy's attempts to restore order were unsuccessful, and the House conducted minimal business.
