Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK President M.K. Stalin criticized the BJP-led Union government for suspending eight opposition Members of Parliament from the Lok Sabha, labeling the move as undemocratic and politically driven.
Stalin emphasized the importance of parliamentary democracy, stating that silencing elected representatives goes against the core principles of debate, accountability, and transparency that the Parliament should uphold.
He called for the immediate revocation of the suspensions, highlighting that MPs have a democratic right to address public concerns, especially on matters of national security and economic interests.
Stalin’s remarks followed the suspension of eight opposition MPs, including Rahul Gandhi, during the Budget session for alleged unruly conduct, sparking criticism and concerns over stifling debate and democratic norms.
