Two Congress MPs From Kerala Expected To Be Suspended For Intimidating Union Minister Smriti Irani In Lok Sabha

Speaker of the Lok Sabha, Om Birla is expected to suspend two Members of Parliament (MPs) today (9 December) from partaking in the proceedings of the Winter Session of the Parliament for attempting to intimidate Union Minister Smriti Irani on the floor of the House, reports News18.

The two MPs, both hailing from Indian National Congress (INC) from the State of Kerala, on Friday (6 December) aggressively charged towards Irani, rushing in the direction of the treasury benches, with one of the two going on to object to Irani speaking in the House.

Supporting the call for apology, Union Minister for Parliamentary Affairs Pralhad Joshi said, "This is the most condemnable behaviour. They came in a threatening position when she was speaking. She is a lady member of the House. It is most uncalled for and they should apologise."
