"I have seen worse than this when I was a member of the Assembly (Uttar Pradesh)," said Khan while talking to media persons.
Before his address to the House, the Assembly witnessed high voltage drama with Opposition MLAs chanting "go back governor" and displaying anti-CAA placards against Khan as soon as he arrived in the House for his address.
MLAs of the United Democratic Front (UDF) also raised slogans while blocking the governor's path and House marshals had to rush to escort the governor to his podium.
