Prime minister Manmohan Singh should immediately convene an all-party meeting to discuss action against Maharashtra Navanirman Sena chief and its legislators in view of the assault of SP MLA Abu Azmi in the assembly, RJD president Lalu Prasad said today.

"The PM should immediately call an all-party meeting to discuss the action to be taken against MNS for deliberately indulging in anti-national activities," he told reporters here.

"The behaviour of MNS legislators who assaulted the SP MLA for taking oath in Hindi defying the diktat of their party chief Raj Thackeray is highly condemnable ... It should be treatead as an act detrimental to the country's integrity and unity," Prasad said.

He urged the Election Commission to derecognise MNS and take steps to disqualify the MLAs responsible for the assault today. Prasad said he would raise the demand in the forthcoming session of Parliament.
