On Monday, thirty-three opposition members, together with Congress chief Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, DMK MPs T R Baalu and Dayanidhi Maran, and TMC’s Saugata Roy, confronted suspension from the Lok Sabha for disrupting proceedings. Whereas 30 of them had been suspended for the rest of the Winter Session, three—Okay Jayakumar, Vijay Vasanth, and Abdul Khaleque—had been suspended pending the report of the Privileges Committee. The latter trio had climbed onto the Speaker’s podium to boost slogans.
Following their naming by the Chair, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi moved a movement for suspension, which was adopted by a voice vote. The Home was subsequently adjourned for the day.
