They requested the Governor that the suspension be revoked, thereby enabling the legislators to resume their responsibilities as representatives of the people. In a memorandum, they explained the incident of March 21, 2025, where the Speaker suspended 18 BJP MLAs when the House was in session, while they were discussing the alleged honey-trapping scandal, and 4 per cent reservation for Muslims in government contracts.
