|August 09, 2025
DEPUTY Chairman of Rajya Sabha Harivansh, while rejecting the suspension notices under rule 267, on Friday observed that some members are using the provision as a "tool to create disorder in the House." The remark came as the Opposition MPs raised their demand for a discussion on special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral roll in Bihar soon after the laying of papers in the morning session.
"I have received 20 notices under Rule 267. It is interesting to note that the members are often giving suspension notices to discuss a wide variety of subjects. Some members are submitting notices daily on varying issues. It appears that notices under Rule 267 are being used as a tool to create disorder in the House," Harivansh stated.
