Barely 24 hours after 78 MPs were suspended across both Houses of Parliament, Tuesday saw more suspensions - 49, extending the record-breaking parliament standoff between the government and the opposition.
It is the democracy, not the MPs, that has been suspended from parliament, remarked Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha on the mass suspension of opposition leaders from parliament.
Barely 24 hours after 78 MPs were suspended across both Houses of Parliament, Tuesday saw more suspensions - 49, extending the record-breaking parliament standoff between the government and the opposition.
"It's not just the MPs who have been suspended from Parliament but rather, democracy within the country has been suspended. These opposition MPs were suspended solely because they questioned the security lapse in Parliament," said the Aam Aadmi Party leader.
