Reacting to the suspension of 49 more MPs from Lok Sabha, including his own, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said, “…It is clear that they want an Opposition-Mukt Lok Sabha and they will do something similar in Rajya Sabha. At this point, unfortunately, we have to start writing obituaries for Parliamentary democracy in India…Today, in solidarity with my colleagues, I too joined the protest and everyone present there has been suspended for the rest of the session which means they want to pass their Bills without any discussion. I think it is a betrayal of Parliamentary democracy…”
