Showing no regret for his despicable conduct, the TMC MP took to Twitter to tell about his suspension.  “The last time I got suspended from RS was when govt. was BULLDOZING #FarmLaws. We all know what happened after that.

Then these suspended Rajya Sabha members had gone to the nicely of the House and bodily threatened the Deputy Chairman. Video clips of AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh assaulting a Marshal on obligation had gone viral yesterday. VP Naidu had known as the incident unlucky and condemnable. He had urged the MPs to do some introspection.
However, the TMC MP has not learnt something from the previous incident it appears. O’Brien threw the Rule Book on the reporters’ desk after the Chair didn’t permit voting for passage of a invoice to vary election legal guidelines, citing dysfunction within the House. The Opposition walked out of the House whereas the government condemned the behaviour of the TMC MP.
