AAP MP Sushil Kumar Rinku gets suspended from Lok Sabha, blames BJP


AAP MP Sushil Kumar Rinku was suspended from Lok Sabha for the remainder of the monsoon session on Thursday, August 3, 2023. He was suspended for throwing papers at the Chair during a discussion on the Delhi services bill.

The Lok Sabha Speaker, Om Birla, said that Rinku's actions were "unruly and disrespectful". He said that Rinku had "disrupted the proceedings of the House".

Rinku said that he was "disappointed" by the decision to suspend him. He said that he was "only trying to raise the voice of the people of Delhi". He also said that he would continue to fight for the rights of the people of Delhi.

The suspension of Rinku is the latest in a series of incidents involving AAP MPs. In recent months, AAP MPs have been suspended for a variety of reasons, including shouting slogans, interrupting the Speaker, and refusing to follow the rules of the House. But AAP is blaming BJP for the suspensions. 

The suspension of Rinku is likely to further strain relations between the AAP and the ruling BJP. The AAP has accused the BJP of targeting its MPs in an attempt to silence them. The BJP has denied these allegations. It is clear that AAP MP Sushil Kumar Rinku has broke the rules of the house and disrespected the speaker. 

It remains to be seen how the suspension of Rinku will affect the AAP's political fortunes. The AAP is facing a number of challenges, including the upcoming assembly elections in Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. The suspension of Rinku is likely to add to these challenges.

Here are some of the reactions to the suspension of Rinku:

  • AAP leader Sanjay Singh: "This is a clear case of political vendetta. The BJP is trying to silence us because we are raising the voice of the people of Delhi."
  • Congress leader Rahul Gandhi: "The suspension of Rinku is a clear attack on democracy. The BJP is trying to stifle dissent."
  • BJP leader Prakash Javadekar: "Rinku's actions were unruly and disrespectful. He deserved to be suspended."

It is likely that the suspension of Rinku will be challenged in court. The AAP has already said that it will challenge the suspension. It remains to be seen whether the court will uphold the suspension or overturn it.
