TMC politician Mahua Moitra represents West Bengal’s Krishnanagar constituency. While another women MP like Kanimozhi represents Tamil Nadu’s Thoothukkudi seat. As for other mentioned names, Supriya Sule, Jothimani, Thamizhachi Thangapandian, and Dimple Yadav respectively represent Maharashtra’s Baramati constituency, Tamil Nadu’s Karur, Chennai South seat, and Uttar Pradesh’s Mainpuri seat.
Meanwhile, 18th Lok Sabha session has just begun today, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other Cabinet ministers taking oath as members of parliament.
But amidst the oath-taking ceremony, opposition parties made an uproar over various issues like appointment of BJP leader Bhartruhari Mahtab as pro-tem Speaker, presence of irregularities in NEET-UG 2024 examination and shifting of statutes in parliament building complex.
Earlier before the Lok Sabha session, PM Modi issued a message saying, that citizens of the country expect ‘debate and diligence’ rather than ‘disturbance.’
