120 Oppn MPs move to remove Lok Sabha Speaker over Rahul Gandhi gag

  • Approximately 120 Opposition MPs from Congress, DMK, and Samajwadi Party moved a notice to remove Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.
  • The notice cites the Speaker's alleged 'abuse of this constitutional office' and 'blatantly partisan manner' in conducting Lok Sabha business.
  • Opposition claims the Speaker prevented MPs from raising public interest issues and made false allegations against Congress members.
  • Rahul Gandhi did not sign the motion, as it's deemed improper for the Leader of Opposition to sign such a petition.
  • TMC MPs did not sign the notice.
