Delhi Assembly Speaker Ram Niwas Goel suspended BJP legislator Vijender Gupta on Tuesday for a year till the next Budget session for allegedly obstructing the proceedings of the House.

To this, Assembly Speaker Ram Niwas Goel had said, ''As per rules, such a notice needs to be given three hours before. You are also saying that it should be taken up for discussion.

The notice given by him mentioned the leaking of details of the 'Outcome Budget', which was tabled in the Assembly on Monday.
