Govt may move motion for suspension against MPs for creating ruckus in Rajya Sabha
After chaos in Rajya Sabha on Sunday after two crucial farm bills were passed, the government has decided to move a motion on Monday for the suspension of opposition members of parliament who created the ruckus, said sources. The government has the powers to move the motion under rule 256 (Suspension of member) which says-
(1) The Chairman may, if he deems it necessary, name a member who disregards the authority of the Chair or abuses the rules of the Council by persistently and willfully obstructing the business thereof.
(2) If a member is so named by the Chairman he shall forthwith put the question on a motion being made, no amendment, adjournment or debate being allowed, that the member (naming him) be suspended from the service of the Council for a period not exceeding the remainder of the Session:
Provided that the Council may, at any time, on. a motion being made, resolve that such suspension be terminated.
(3) A member suspended under this rule shall forthwith quit the precincts of the Council
