New Delhi: As many as 143 MPs have been suspended from Parliament over the last few days, including 78 in a day, for unruly behaviour while demanding for a statement from Union Minister Amit Shah in the House over last week’s major security breach in Lok Sabha.
To protest against the government’s ‘dictatorial’ attitude, leaders of Opposition Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) bloc have decided to hold a protest at Jantar Mantar here on Friday.
Delhi Congress is organising the protest, local party chief Arvinder Singh Lovely said on Wednesday.
Delhi Congress party has directed its district presidents to visit all 280 blocks in the city and urge people to participate in the demonstration which will begin at 11 am on Friday.
Most INDIA bloc leaders are expected to participate in the demonstration.
The number of suspended MPs in Lok Sabha reached 97 on Wednesday, while in Rajya Sabha it is 46.
“It was the right of MPs to ask questions inside the Parliament. A large number of people from different parts of the city will raise their voice against the undemocratic move during the protest,” said Lovely, who reviewed preparations of the protest rally at Delhi Congress headquarters.
