Opposition lawmakers Tuesday hit out at the government after 49 more Lok Sabha members were suspended from the House, calling Parliament a graveyard of the Constitution and comparing it with the North Korean assembly. The suspension of 49 Lok Sabha MPs came a day after a total of 78 -- 33 from the Lower House and 45 from the Upper House -- lawmakers were suspended from Parliament for disrupting proceedings.
Reacting strongly to the developments, Shiromani Akali Dal MP Harsimrat Kaur Badal said, “The graveyard of the constitution is visible here”. “Opposition MPs whose job is to raise questions in Parliament are thrown for doing their job...this is the new India... see it,” she said outside Parliament.
