NDTV
At least 78 MPs, including both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha members, were suspended on Monday for staging protests in demand of a statement by Union Home Minister Amit Shah on the security breach in Parliament last week.
Congress leader Randeep Surjewala has criticised the BJP government for suspending 78 MPs in both Houses of Parliament, including both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha members, for staging protests in demand of a statement by Union Home Minister Amit Shah on the security breach in Parliament last week.
Mr Surjewala argued that this is an attack on democracy, the Constitution of India, and the Ganga-Jamuni culture of the country. The reason behind the suspension of opposition MPs for the rest of the Winter Session was cited as "misconduct" and failure to adhere to the Chair's directions.
Congress leader Randeep Surjewala said, "What has not happened in the history of the country in seventy-five years has happened now; ninety-two MPs have been suspended from the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha... This is not an attack on our rights; we represent the people. This is an attack on the democracy of this country. The Constitution of this country has been attacked. The Ganga-Jamuni culture of this country has been attacked. The tradition of the Constitution has been attacked in this country. The parliamentary decorum of this country has been attacked."
