The Lok Sabha faced adjournment on Wednesday amid vociferous demonstrations by opposition MPs following the suspension of eight members during the ongoing Budget Session. The chaos erupted in response to comments made by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, which were deemed contentious by the ruling government.
The suspended MPs, a mix of Congress and CPI(M) representatives, staged protests outside the Parliament building, displaying signs that conveyed slogans such as 'PM is compromised.' Their suspension drew considerable attention, aligning with statements made by Rahul Gandhi concerning the India-US trade talks and national security.
Defending Gandhi, Samajwadi Party MP Anand Bhadauria criticized the BJP-led government, accusing them of suppressing dissent. He alleged that the ruling party orchestrates such upheavals to avoid discussing critical national issues openly. The government justified the suspensions by accusing the MPs of breaching procedural decorum in the House.
