8 Opposition MPs Suspended from Lok Sabha Over 'Unruly Behaviour'

  • Eight opposition MPs, seven from Congress and one from CPI(M), were suspended from Lok Sabha for the remainder of the Budget session.
  • The suspended MPs include Amrinder Singh Raja Warring, Gurjeet Singh Aujla, Hibi Eden, Dean Kuriakose, Manickam Tagore, Prashant Padole, Kiran Kumar Reddy (Congress), and S Venkatesan (CPI-M).
  • The formal reason for suspension was "unruly behaviour," including tearing papers and throwing them at the Chair during a speech by Rahul Gandhi.
  • The incident occurred amidst intense disruption and multiple adjournments, particularly after Rahul Gandhi was disallowed from citing a magazine article.
  • Opposition leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi, protested the "unjust suspension" and alleged an "attack on parliamentary democracy."
