Instrument of Opposition against the Speaker should not be weaponised to satisfy anyone’s ego: Ravi Shankar Prasad
The Lok Sabha resumed its discussion on the resolution against Speaker Om Birla.
“Let the instrument of Opposition against the Speaker not be weaponised to satisfy the ego of some leader or some group,” BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad said.
“11 MPs who had taken money to ask certain questions were expelled from this same parliament and no one made a protest. In the same House, there was a time when black pepper was thrown in the House,” he said.
“There was one brave judge, H.R. Khanna, who decided from ADM Jabalpur that during an Emergency, people’s fundamental rights will not be taken away. The Congress party did not even allow him to stay Chief Justice for even 45 days,” he said.
