The authorities stated that the violence against the leadership and the damage to national symbols represent a serious lack of respect for democratic institutions and the legislative mandate. The ruling coalition also reported that the fight broke after the PAN's deputy Daniela Álvarez Camacho broke an agreement reached between Morena, PRI, and PAN to advance the 4T's proposed reform. It was at this moment that PAN figures went up to the podium to prevent the normal functioning of the Congress. In various videos, the PAN's deputy elected for Tlalpan, Daniela Álvarez Camacho, is seen attacking the Congress vice president for Morena, Yuriri Ayala, pulling her hair and repeatedly hitting her with elbows. According to a deputy who spoke with LPO, the PAN's coordinator, Andrés Atayde, had opposed his bloc, but the initiative would be approved by the majority his party has. However, the deputy for Tlalpan interrupted at the podium despite these conversations held on Sunday. Another figure who participated in the aggression was the PAN's deputy for Cuajimalpa, Claudia Pérez. Finally, the proposal was approved with 45 votes in favor, zero abstentions, and no votes against, as both Movimiento Ciudadano, PAN, and PRI withdrew from the chamber as a form of protest. Additionally, it crossed with the Morena deputy Martha Ávila, who also intervened in the fight, just like her counterpart from Álvaro Obregón, Rosario Morales. As a result, the session ended abruptly after the fights made it impossible for the Legislative Power to function normally. This Monday, the session of the Congress of Mexico City was interrupted due to aggressions and fights between the factions of the government and the opposition. Minutes after these violent events, Morena issued a communiqué denouncing that the PAN 'violently interrupted at the podium in an attempt to defend party quotas.' 'They want the body to be collegiate to have and ensure quotas of power,' assured the same source minutes before the president of the Mesa Directiva, Jesús Sesma, resumed the plenary work. The last ordinary session of the current Legislature of the Congress of CDMX ended with a scandal after figures from PAN and Morena got into a strong fight that included shoves and punches right in the legislative tribune. 'Eat your majority and vote alone,' declared Andrés Atayde in protest. The interruption came at the moment when the 4T was trying to advance with the elimination of Info CDMX, a proposal that the opposition qualifies as authoritarian and illegal. The fight began when the government tried to advance the elimination of the Institute of Transparency, Access to Public Information, Protection of Personal Data and Accountability of Mexico City (Infocdmx). This Monday, during the session, the 4T intended to advance with a reservation on the dictamen reached this Sunday so that the new body that will absorb its functions within the Control Office is not collegiate.
