Opposition Likely To Move No-Confidence Motion Against LS Speaker Birla

New Delhi: The opposition parties may bring a no-confidence motion against Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Monday. The proposal was kept in a meeting of Congress MPs.

Congress is talking to other Opposition parties in this regard, news agency ANI reported, citing sources.

The opposition will move the no-confidence motion against Birla for disqualification of Rahul Gandhi and for being biased in the House, reports said.

It has been reported that the no-confidence motion may be moved next Monday. To move the motion, the opposition parties need the support of at least 50 MPs in the Lok Sabha.

The Congress party has been trying to gather support from other opposition parties to reach this number.

Meanwhile, Congress General secretary KC Venugopal and communications in-charge Jairam Ramesh addressed a Press conference on Tuesday afternoon.
