Suspend TMC’s Kalyan Banerjee from Lok Sabha, BJP MPs write to Speaker

BJP MPs on the joint parliamentary committee examining the Waqf Amendment Bill on Wednesday wrote to Lok Sabha Speaker demanding the suspension of TMC’s Kalyan Banerjee from the House after he smashed a glass bottle yesterday at the panel meet.

The letter, signed by Nishikant Dubey, Aprajita Sarangi and Abhijit Gangapadhyay, also urged the speaker to lodge an FIR against Banerjee for his “unpardonable” conduct and get a thorough probe done into his conduct. The letter flags alleged “unprecedented hooliganism, unpardonable violence and life threatening attack by Banerjee” on panel chairman Jagdambika Pal and demands a probe by a competent law enforcement agency.
