Supreme Court cancels suspension of 12 Maharashtra BJP MLAs
The Maharashtra assembly's resolution to suspend 12 BJP MLAs for a year for alleged unruly behaviour has been set aside by the Supreme Court.

New Delhi, 28 January 2022

"Suspending the MLAs beyond the sessions is unconstitutional and illegal," the Supreme Court said today. As per news report of NDTV, while the rules say suspension can be for the session, the 12 MLAs were suspended for a year beyond the session. They were suspended on July 5 last year from the assembly after the state government accused them of "misbehaving" with presiding officer Bhaskar Jadhav in the Speaker's chamber. The 12 MLAs are Sanjay Kute, Ashish Shelar, Abhimanyu Pawar, Girish Mahajan, Atul Bhatkhalkar, Parag Alavani, Harish Pimpale, Yogesh Sagar, Jay Kumar Rawat, Narayan Kuche, Ram Satpute and Bunty Bhangdia.
