Earlier in the day, Congress leader KC Venugopal hinted at action by the opposition against Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.

Venugopal criticised the functioning of the Lok Sabha, alleging that the opposition is being sidelined and not allowed to raise its voice on important issues.

Speaking to the reporters in the Parliament complex, Venugopal said, "As per the Parliamentary rules, the Leader of Opposition is a shadow Prime Minister. But here, the LoP is not being allowed to speak in the House. The government can say anything and attack anyone."

"The Speaker is himself making allegations against the Congress women MPs, but there is no space for the opposition in this House at all and they are not even allowed... This kind of attitude against the opposition never happened before... wait for the action," the Congress MP from Kerala said. (ANI)
