AAP MP Sanjay Singh Suspended For Remaining Parliament Session For 'Obstructing' House Proceedings

Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh has been suspended from the Rajya Sabha for the remaining period of the monsoon session of parliament.

Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh has been suspended from Rajya Sabha for the remaining duration of the Parliament's monsoon session for 'obstructing' the proceedings of the House. Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar said that Sanjay Singh is suspended for the entire session for obstructing the proceedings of the House even after repeated refusals. This comes as Parliament witnessed massive chaos amid sloganeering over the Manipur issue.
 
The opposition has been demanding a discussion and PM Narendra Modi's statement in both Houses of Parliament on the Manipur viral video case.

Both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were adjourned till 2 PM minutes after they resumed proceedings at 12 noon as the opposition shouted 'Modi Sarkar Shame Shame', 'PM Modi Jawab Do', 'Manipur Wants Justice' slogans. Notably, the first two days of the monsoon session last week saw a similar ruckus leading to nearly zero functioning of Parliament.

Earlier in the day, AAP MP Raghav Chada said that the country demands that the government and PM Modi should speak on the issue of Manipur. "It is the responsibility of the Central govt to restore peace in the country. Today we are going to protest against this issue in the Parliament. Rajya Sabha Chairman should allow us to discuss on the Manipur issue," he added.

BSP Chief Mayawati tweeted that despite agreeing to discuss Manipur, it is sad and unfortunate that the time of the first two days of the current session of Parliament was wasted on the rule of law dispute. "Discussion and government statement on Manipur is necessary," she further said.

Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Priyanka Chaturvedi said, "We also want the House to function and we want the PM to answer (on the Manipur situation). We don't want any ruckus to be created in the Parliament."
