    The latest suspension comes a day after 78 opposition MPs were suspended for the remainder of the ongoing ‘Winter Session’, for raising a ruckus and disrupting proceedings in both Houses on Monday to push for their demand for a statement from Union Home Minister Amit Shah over the Parliament security breach incident.

    A total of 78 MPs – 33 from Lok Sabha and 45 from Rajya Sabha – were suspended on Monday, following a ruckus over the demand by the Opposition for a statement from Union Minister Amit Shah on the Parliament security breach incident, taking the total number of lawmakers suspended for the remainder of the ongoing Winter Session to 92 on Monday.

    While 34 opposition Rajya Sabha MPs, including Congress’ Jairam Ramesh, KC Venugopal and Randeep Singh Surjewala were suspended for the remainder of the ‘Winter Session’, the ‘misconduct’ of 11 others was also referred to the Privileges Committee, which has been asked to give its report in three months.

    The members will remain suspended till a report is submitted by the panel. The reason for the suspension of opposition MPs for the rest of the Winter Session was cited to be ‘misconduct’ and failure to adhere to the directions of the Chair.

    Meanwhile, the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance MPs staged a massive protest outside the Gandhi statue in Parliament over the security breach issue. Following the suspensions on Monday, Opposition MPs lashed out at the BJP-led Centre, terming it ‘autocratic’. Kharge said, “democratic norms are being thrown into the dustbin by an autocratic Modi government by suspending 47 MPs”.

    “With an Opposition-Less Parliament, the Modi government can now bulldoze important pending legislations, crush any dissent, without any debate,” the Congress national president posted on X. He added that the Opposition’s demands include a statement from Shah on the security breach and a discussion in both Houses.

  • “Immediately after census and delimitation elections..”: Home Minister Amit Shah in Lok Sabha

    New Delhi:

    During the debate on Women’s Reservation Bill in the Lok Sabha, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that the Nari Shakti Vandan Bill is not a political agenda for BJP and Modi ji. He said that tomorrow will be written in golden letters in the history of the Indian Parliament. Yesterday, the bill to give rights to women, which was pending for years, was presented in the House. I want to thank Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said that since Modi took oath as the Prime Minister, safety, respect and equal participation of women has been the life force of the government.

    Women empowerment is not a political issue for us: Home Minister

    Amit Shah said that with the passing of this bill the long fight for women’s rights will end. During G20, Prime Minister Modi presented the vision of women-led development to the whole world. The Union Home Minister said that for some parties, women empowerment can be a political agenda, for some parties the slogan of women empowerment can be a weapon to win elections, but for BJP, women empowerment is not a political issue but a question of humanity.

    Don’t give account of 60 years: Amit Shah

    Amit Shah said in the Lok Sabha amid opposition’s heckling that Amit Shah said that the opposition asks for accounts of 10 years from us, whereas they themselves do not give accounts of 60 years. He said that this is the fifth attempt to bring a women’s reservation bill. From Deve Gowda ji to Manmohan Singh ji, attempts were made to bring this bill four times…what was the reason that this bill could not be passed?

    On Rahul Gandhi’s statement regarding OBC Secretary, Amit Shah said that some people think that the country is run by the Secretary, whereas we believe that the country is run by the government. Amit Shah said that after the elections, both census and delimitation will be done, very soon the time will come when one-third of the mothers and sisters will be in the House.

    “If Wayanad gets reserved…”

    On the Women’s Reservation Bill, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that questions are being raised regarding OBC reservation, delimitation issue or census, I answer them all. First of all, there are three types of MPs in the existing Constitution, who come from General, SC and ST categories. We have made 33% reservation for women in these three categories. Now if one-third seats are to be reserved, then who will decide that seat? should we do? If Wayanad gets reserved then you will say that we have done politics.
