The suspension was imposed on 30 MPs for the act of displaying placards and an additional three MPs faced suspension for the breach of privilege.

The recent decision follows the suspension of 13 MPs, nine of whom were from the Congress party, a few days earlier. They were suspended due to their involvement in displaying placards and engaging in unruly behaviour. The Opposition had been advocating for reinstating the 13 Lok Sabha MPs who were previously suspended. Today, a group of them staged a protest on the steps of the Parliament, displaying placards to express their demands.
