Opposition Moves No-Confidence Motion Against Lok Sabha Speaker

Opposition Moves No-Confidence Motion Against Lok Sabha Speaker.webp

New Delhi, March 7 The Trinamool Congress will support the no-confidence motion against Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, party sources said on Saturday.

As Parliament meets for the second phase of the Budget session on Monday, the Lok Sabha has listed a notice from the opposition to move a resolution to remove Om Birla as the speaker, allegedly for acting in a "blatantly partisan" manner.

At least 118 opposition MPs had submitted the notice, citing that it prevented Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Rahul Gandhi and other opposition leaders from speaking in the House on the Motion of Thanks to the President's address, as well as for suspending eight MPs in the first phase of the Budget session.

TMC MPs had previously not signed the notice.
