A politician was physically removed from an assembly meeting after he refused to stop shouting in front of more than 60 other government members.

Vijender Gupta was one of three members of the Bharatiya Janata Party, otherwise known as the Indian People's Party , who had to be forcibly ejected from the meeting in New Delhi after they refused to stop making noise during proceedings.

Security first tried to drag the three men out of the room, but when this method failed, they picked each politician up and lifted them out.

Mr Gupta had raised loud demands for better salaries for civic workers and began protesting just moments after the budget meeting had been assembled, according to the New Delhi Television News.

He described his party as being outnumbered - with only three seats - while a further 67 are occupied by the ruling Aam Aadami Party.

Mr Gupta added: "The government in undemocratic. They are getting us beaten up.

"But we will not tolerate anything unconstitutional. We will shout 'til we are hoarse."
