AAP’s Sushil Kumar Rinku : Suspension of MPs Raghav Chadha, Sanjay Singh should be revoked

Sushil Kumar Rinku, a member of the Aam Aadmi Party, stated on Monday that Raghav Chadha and Sanjay Singh’s suspensions from the Rajya Sabha should be lifted and that they should be permitted to attend the session in the new Parliament building.

“We will enter a new House today, and as they (Raghav Chadha and Sanjay Singh) are also elected representatives, they deserve to get their due respect. All Opposition parties have demanded to revoke their suspension,” said Rinku.
Talking about his own suspension, the AAP leader said, “I was also suspended in the last session, but it was only for the previous one, I will be attending the session of Parliament today.”

After receiving a complaint from four MPs that he had named them in a house panel without their permission, Raghav Chadha was expelled from the Upper House in August of this year.

When announcing Chadha’s suspension, Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar had stated, “I suspend Raghav Chadha from the service of the Council until the Council has the benefit of the report by the Committee of Privileges.” Sanjay Singh was also expelled from the Parliament in July of this year for the remainder of the monsoon session for “repeatedly violating” the Chair’s instructions. Parliamentary business will be conducted in the nearby new building during the five-day Special Session rather than the antecedent old building.
