Taking to Twitter, Derek O'Brien said this time he has been suspended for protesting against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) making a mockery of the Parliament by “bulldozing” The Election Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2021, hoping this bill will also be repealed soon.
"The last time I got suspended from RS was when govt. was BULLDOZING #FarmLaws," the TMC leader wrote on Twitter. “We all know what happened after that.”
The Election Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2021, which has been passed by both Houses, seeks to link electoral roll data with the Aadhaar ecosystem.
