Lok Sabha Revokes Suspension of Eight Opposition MPs After All-Party Consensus

The Lok Sabha revoked the suspension of eight opposition MPs on March 17, who had been barred since February 3 for unruly behaviour during the Budget Session. The MPs, seven from Congress and one from CPI(M), were suspended following disruptions linked to protests over a disallowed speech by Rahul Gandhi. The revocation followed an all-party meeting convened by Speaker Om Birla, where members agreed to uphold parliamentary decorum, avoid disruptive protests, and refrain from using placards or AI-generated images in the House and Parliament complex.
