New Delhi
Three more Rajya Sabha members were suspended on Thursday for a week for "disrupting" the House proceedings and showing "utter disregard" to the Chair.
The three suspended members are Sushil Kumar Gupta, Sandeep Kumar Pathak and Ajit Kumar Bhuyan.
While Sushil Kumar Gupta and Pathak are from the Aam Aadmi Party, Bhuyan is an Independent MP.
Their suspension comes a day after AAP’s Sanjay Singh was suspended for the remaining part of the week.
They were suspended for entering the Well of House, shouting slogans and displaying placards.
The ruling on their suspension came after Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs V Muraleedharan moved a motion against them which was adopted by a voice vote.
Earlier on Tuesday 19 opposition Members were suspended from the House for a week for disrupting House proceedings.
The 19 members include seven from the TMC, six from the DMK, three from TRS, two from CPI (M) and one from CPI.
