Winter session: Om Birla urges MPs not to protest at Parliament's entry gate
Wednesday, 4 December 2024 Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla urged Members of Parliament (MPs) to refrain from protesting at the Parliament House entry gate, as it obstructs access for others. This follows recent protests at the gate after Mahatma Gandhi's statue was relocated. The Lok Sabha secretariat also advised against gate protests, citing safety and security concerns for members and officials.
New Zealand’s Parliament suspended three opposition lawmakers, Rawiri Waititi, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, and Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, over their haka performance in protest of a controversial bill. The bill, supported by the conservative government, sparked backlash from the Māori community, with critics claiming it represented an anti-Māori agenda. This protest, the most severe disciplinary action against lawmakers in New Zealand’s history, signals a growing debate over Māori culture’s role in public life and the nation’s push for Indigenous rights.
