"Attempts are being made to put an end to the democratic system of the country, and it is not this easy. I do not support it at all," said Gupta.

He also emphasised that there are situations and issues which require the MPs to do so and said," Rajya Sabha is a council of states, and states have different problems and people have the right to speak up and there are occasions when it becomes imperative to move to the well. I do not support it at all."Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has three MPs in the Upper House. (ANI)
