The MPs were protesting against last week's security breach in parliament.

On Monday, the opposition accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government of attacking democracy after a record 78 MPs were suspended in one day.

Most of the lawmakers have been barred for the rest of the winter session, which ends on Friday.

But around two dozen of them may have to stay away for longer, depending on the decision of the parliament's privileges committee.

Most of the suspended MPs are part of the INDIA alliance, a coalition of opposition parties that hopes to take on Mr Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in next year's general election.

The alliance has 142 MPs in the 543-member Lok Sabha - the lower house of parliament - of which 95 have now been suspended. It has 101 MPs in the 250-member upper house or Rajya Sabha (a few seats are vacant) - of these, 46 have been suspended.

"Unfortunately, we have to start writing obituaries for parliamentary democracy in India," Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said on Tuesday after being suspended.

The governing BJP has accused the opposition leaders of deliberately disrupting parliament proceedings.

The developments are expected to worsen already frosty relations between the opposition and Mr Modi's government.

There is no decorum of protests. The rules are no charging the well, no placards, no abuse of presiding officers. The rules were always there and used sometimes by the ruling dispensation. Even UPA has susended many MPs and this is not the first time it is happening. The rules are being enforced by the government to the T. This is the last session before elections, so BJP ruling party is not taking thins lying down.

 

Meanwhile, this mohabbat ki dukaandaar is shamelessly seen filming the   low-class theatrics of some bong MP mocking the VP. At least give respect to the position, if not the person.

they can keep protesting as much as they want. When it comes to seat sharing among themselves they will bicker as usual.

 

BJP should chuck them out and then pass bills on CAA Uniform civil code and NRC.

 

 

Exactly, I am waiting for all three bills to be tabled in Parliament As soon as few RS MPs are suspended for doing chewtiyap.  
Think you need 2/3 rd of majority to do a constitutional change

I’d say remove seculari from constitution preamble and call India a Hindu Rashtra. Kissa khatam.
