TL;DR Summary

Forty-nine more opposition members, including Congress leaders Shashi Tharoor, Manish Tewari, and Karti Chidambaram, were suspended from the Lok Sabha for the remainder of the winter session of Parliament on charges of 'serious misconduct'. This brings the total number of suspended opposition MPs to 141. The suspensions come after the House faced adjournments due to opposition members raising slogans and displaying placards. The Congress has criticized the suspensions, claiming they are aimed at bulldozing bills without meaningful debate, while the government is keen to pass new criminal code bills.
