Several Penang Pakatan Harapan assemblypersons have lashed out at state Gerakan chief Teng Chang Yeow for criticising the state government for postponing the Dewan Negeri proceedings for nine days.

The assemblypersons slammed Teng for insulting the Indian community as the proceedings were postponed because of the Deepavali celebrations and they demanded that Teng apologises for "sucking up" to Umno.
