PADANG - The plenary session of the Solok Regency DPRD, West Sumatra was chaotic. A number of council members almost got into a fistfight.

This plenary session is related to the submission of a report on the results of the discussion of the Draft Regional Regulation of the Regional Medium-Term Development Plan (Raperda RPJMD) 2021/2022.

The meeting was originally opened by the Chairman of the Solok Regency DPRD, Dodi Hendra, Wednesday, August 18. However, a member of the council requested that the plenary meeting not be chaired by Dodi Hendra, arguing that the motion of no confidence in the chairman of the DPRD was still running.

"We refuse Dodi Hendra to lead today's trial," said one member of the council interrupting the session, quoted by Antara.

Interruptions continued to color the course of the trial and the court situation became increasingly heated, so the chairperson of the trial suspended the trial for 30 minutes.

When the meeting started again, the rain of interruptions occurred again. In fact, one of the council members stood up defiantly and threatened to throw a glass ashtray, almost triggering a fistfight and fistfight.

The chairman of the PAN faction of the Solok Regency DPRD, Aurizal, accompanied by a member of the DPRD from the PDI-P, Zamroni, also stated that the action of a member of the council who threatened to throw the ashtray triggered a riot.

"He deliberately stood holding up an ashtray and emitted a threatening tone, thereby provoking the emotions of other council members," he said.

In addition, according to him, the motion of no confidence against DPRD chairman Dodi Hendra is purely the aspirations and wishes of members of the Solok Regency DPRD.

"So there is no intervention at all from outside or external to the DPRD. This is purely our desire as members who no longer want Brother Dodi Hendra as chairman of the DPRD, let alone lead today's session," he also said.

Chaos occurred when the people's representatives carried out the plenary session of the Solok Regency DPRD in the discussion of the 2021/2022 RPJMD Raperda which was circulated in a video and went viral on social media.
