The India — Indian National Congress, supported by 118 MPs, has submitted a no-confidence motion against India — Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, alleging 'blatantly partisan' conduct. The discussion on this motion is expected to take place on March 9, the first day of the second part of the Budget Session. Reasons cited include the alleged denial of speaking opportunities to opposition leaders like Rahul Gandhi, the suspension of eight MPs, and 'objectionable attacks' by Bharatiya Janata Party MP Nishikant Dubey. Om Birla's statement about urging Prime Minister Narendra Modi not to attend the House to prevent an 'unprecedented incident' was also flagged. The India — Trinamool Congress has offered conditional support, stating they will sign the motion if Om Birla does not act on the Opposition's appeal within two to three days.
