Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju announced that the Lok Sabha will debate and vote on a no-confidence motion against the Speaker on March 9. This follows a submission by 118 Congress MPs alleging partisan conduct. Historically, such motions against Speakers are rare, with past instances including those against GV Mavalankar, Sardar Hukum Singh, and Balram Jakhar. ]]> https://www.thenewj.in/2026/02/15/rijiju-sets-march-9-debate-on-no-confidence-against-om-birla-nehrus-1954-message-resurfaces/feed/ 0 3036
