The opposition is intensifying its efforts to have the suspension of seven Congress MPs and one CPI-M MP revoked. The members faced suspension during the Lok Sabha's budget session for what was considered 'unruly behaviour'.

Several opposition leaders, including Congress figures and representatives from DMK and TMC, met with Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju to press for the revocation. Rijiju assured discussions with the Speaker would follow.

This issue has escalated tensions between the government and opposition, with the MPs continuing their protests outside Parliament. The suspension is a major sticking point, along with the possible discussion on the West Asia conflict's impact on India's energy security.
