New Delhi : After seven MPs were suspended from the Rajya Sabha for their unruly behaviour over women's bill, CPI (M) leader Brinda Karat on Mar 9 said that the government's stand on the issue was not clear.
"It is not clear what the government stand is. I would not comment (on the suspension)," Karat told reporters. However, she said that what happened on Mar 8 in the House was "shameful and shocking". Seven members belonging to SP, RJD, LJP and an unattached MP were suspended for the remaining period of the budget session for their unruly behaviour in the House.
Terming the suspension of MPs causing disruption as a first step towards passing the Women's Reservation Bill, Congress spokesperson Jayanti Natarajan said the government has shown its commitment. We moved for the suspension of disrupting members.
