New Delhi: Even as the logjam is Lok Sabha continued on Monday with multiple adjournments till Tuesday 11, the sources indicated that the opposition parties are exploring if they should move a no-confidence motion (remove motion) against Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.
Sources said that the decision was taken at a meeting of the INDIA bloc meeting held by Congress president and Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Rajya Sabha, Mallikarjun Kharge.
This comes in the wake of the Opposition parties alleging that Rahul Gandhi was not allowed to speak in the House during the discussion on the Motion of Thanks to the President’s Address.
Sources also said the resolution is being moved under Article 94-C of the Constitution.
The sources said that the notice is being given for moving a resolution against the Speaker for his removal, for disallowing the LoP from speaking in the House on the Motion of Thanks, for not initiating action against BJP MP Nishikand Dubey, for making unsubstantiated charges against women MPs of the Congress and suspension of eight opposition MPs.
They said a resolution in this regard would soon be moved in the Lok Sabha and signatures of MPs are being procured.
Source also stated that the resolution is likely to have signatures of over 100 MPs in the Lok Sabha and getting the signatures of various Opposition MPs is under process.
Sources said the decision to move the resolution was taken at a meeting of Opposition leaders held in the chamber of Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge this morning.
The TMC also attended the meeting besides other parties, including the left, DMK, SP, RJD, Shiv Sena (UBT) and NCP (SP) and RSP.
