Title: AAP MP Sanjay Singh Suspended as Parliament Stalemate Intensifies

Date: [Insert Date]

In a dramatic turn of events, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Sanjay Singh has been suspended for the entire session following his involvement in violence during a session in front of the Rajya Sabha Chairman’s seat. The suspension has further intensified the ongoing stalemate between the government and the opposition in Parliament.

Yesterday morning, opposition MPs, including those from the Congress, gathered in front of the Gandhi statue to protest over the Manipur incident. They later returned to both houses of Parliament and continued causing disruption. When Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla began question time, Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury demanded a discussion on the Manipur issue, to which Birla responded by suggesting to hold the discussion after question time.

Frustrated with the response, opposition party members took action, and Army Minister Rajnath Singh offered to hold a discussion on the Manipur incidents. However, the opposition MPs insisted that it should be the Prime Minister who addresses the issue, resulting in increased clamor and confusion, leading to an adjournment of the meeting.

In the Rajya Sabha, Trinamool MP Saket Gokhale was sworn in, and council president Jagdeep Dhankar began reading the notices received. Derek O’Brien, another Trinamool MP, called out Dhankar for only reading the notices from the ruling party and ignoring those from the opposition.

Due to the commotion, Zero Hour was canceled, and when the question time started, more rumbling occurred. AAP MP Sanjay Singh positioned himself near the Speaker’s seat and continued to raise his voice, defying instructions to go back to his seat. As a result, Singh was suspended for the duration of the session.

The opposition parties were left furious by the suspension, leading to an escalating uproar. As a consequence, the House was adjourned for the entire day. This move by the senior AAP MP has further intensified the stalemate between the ruling party and the opposition in Parliament.

With the introduction of the New Delhi Powers Act scheduled for this session, opposition parties are highly displeased with the suspension as it impacts their ability to participate in important discussions and debates. As a result, the animosity between the ruling party and the opposition has only grown stronger.

During the reconvening of the Lok Sabha, Home Minister Amit Shah, despite facing loud opposition, expressed his willingness to discuss the Manipur incident. Shah called on the opposition parties to cooperate and hold a debate on the matter in the House, emphasizing its importance and sensitivity for the nation.

The ongoing deadlock in Parliament has caused frustration among the public as crucial issues are left unresolved. It is imperative for the ruling party and the opposition to find common ground and resume functioning democratically in the best interest of the nation.
