MLA Jignesh Mevani Suspended from 3-day Assembly Session
Independent MLA from Vadgam constituency Jignesh Mevani was suspended for three days from Gujarat Assembly for ‘indiscipline’ and ‘disrespecting the chair’.
The Speaker took action against Mevani on December 9, after the MLA suddenly got angry over CM Vijay Rupani.
At the time Rupani was moving a resolution to celebrate Constitution Day on the first day of the three-day Assembly session.
Deputy CM Nitin Patel followed to speak on the resolution and stated that the idea of celebrating Constitution Day was first floated by PM Modi.
MLA Mevani intervened at this point and said, “And then you fired bullets on Dalits in Thangadh (of Surendranagar district).”
