Deaths of 2 MLAs make Rajasthan lawmakers wary of 'haunted' House
The deaths of two sitting MLAs within six months have made legislators wary as they fear that the Assembly building may have come under the influence of so-called evil spirits. A ruling BJP MLA even suggested that the chief minister perform a "yajna" to rid the House of the influence of "ghosts". Government Chief Whip Kalulal Gurjar admitted that certain members of the House were uneasy ever since the deaths of the two MLAs and that he himself feared there might be a "ghost" troubling the place. "It is said that the Assembly was built on a land which was a cremation ground earlier and there may be spirits roaming around," he told reporters today.
