Patna, Mar 13 (UNI) The Opposition, barring Samjawadi Party, today boycotted the proceedings of Bihar Assembly, demanding withdrawal of a censure motion adopted in the house yesterday.

When asked about the possibility of breaking the deadlock over the issue, Mr Kumar said option was always there to find a solution to any problem in parliamentary democracy.

Assembly Speaker Udai Narain Chaudhary would talk to the Opposition leaders on the issue to end the crisis, he added.
