Jignesh Mevani Suspended From Gujarat Assembly This Session For Disrupting Proceedings
In a controversial move, Gujarat Assembly Speaker Rajendra Trivedi has suspended first-time MLA Jignesh Mevani for disrupting the assembly's proceedings.
Rajendra Trivedi stated that Jignesh Mevani kept interrupting the Chief Minister, Vijay Rupani, when the latter was talking about Constitution day that was celebrated on November 26.
The Speaker revealed that in the session, the MLA first disrupted, and then after a few warnings started marching towards the well of the assembly.
Apart from this, the Speaker also shared that Jignesh Mevani had been talking about the Thangarh shootings of Dalit community members.
After the suspension order, the Congress MLAs tried to appeal to the Speaker for showing leeway in taking action against Jignesh Mewani since he is a first-time MLA.
