These MLAs were disqualified by the Speaker due to their absence during the budget in the Assembly
Six rebel Congress MLAs on Tuesday approached the Supreme Court to challenge their disqualification ordered by the Himachal Pradesh Assembly Speaker. The rebel MLAs said that the Speaker’s order is “illegal and constitutional”.
These MLAs were disqualified by the Speaker due to their absence during the budget in the Assembly.
Last week, the six rebel MLAs moved the Himachal Pradesh High Court challenging their disqualification from the state Assembly following the defeat of party candidate Abhishek Manu Singhvi in the Rajya Sabha election.
