BSP suspends MP Danish Ali for engaging in anti-party activities
The Amroha MP has been warned multiple times not to act or say things that go against the party’s principles, beliefs, and policies, according to the party statement.

Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and Lok Sabha MP from Amroha Danish Ali, was suspended from the party for anti-party activities after BJP MP Ramesh Bidhuri made offensive remarks to him in parliament.
A statement from Mayawati’s party on Saturday said, this is to inform that Mr. Danish Ali B.S.P. Lok Sabha MP from Amroha, Uttar Pradesh has been suspended from the party today 9.12.2023 due to anti-party activities.
The Amroha MP has been warned multiple times not to act or say things that go against the party’s principles, beliefs, and policies, according to the party statement.
It went on, yet he has been acting and working against the party despite all the warnings.
Ramesh Bidhuri, a BJP MP, caused a political uproar in September 2023 when he used derogatory remarks about Danish Ali in the Parliament. Speaker Om Birla had issued a warning to the BJP MP, threatening strict action if the behaviour continued. J P Nadda, the president of the BJP, also gave him a show-cause notice for his contentious remarks.
Bidhuri apologised on Thursday for his offensive comments made about Ali during a meeting of the Lok Sabha Privileges Committee, which heard the two leaders separately.
Earlier in November, opposition MPs had left the Parliament Ethics Committee meeting, including Danish Ali and Mahua Moitra of the TMC, who was expelled from the Lok Sabha due to suspicions of receiving cash-for-query.
On Friday, Mahua Moitra was ejected from the Lok Sabha following a majority vote in favour of the resolution.
The ethics committee chose to hang me without investigating the matter further. It declined to call the businessman to testify, and there is no proof of any money or gifts, she remarked outside the Parliament, to the cheers of the opposition leaders.

Akbaruddin Owaisi takes oath as pro-tem speaker of Telangana assembly
Owaisi who took the oath in the name of Allah, will later administer oath to newly elected members of the House. Ministers D.Sridhar Babu, Tummala Nageshwara Rao, Seethakka , former minister and BRS leader T Harish Rao and other attended the ceremony

The All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeem (AIMIM) MLA Akbarudin Owaisi on Saturday took oath as pro-tem speaker of the newly-elected Telangana State Assembly. Governor Tamilsai Soundararajan took the oath to him at Raj Bhavan at a ceremony attended by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and speaker of previous assembly Pocharam Srinivas Reddy.
Owaisi who took the oath in the name of Allah, will later administer oath to newly elected members of the House. Ministers D.Sridhar Babu, Tummala Nageshwara Rao, Seethakka , former minister and BRS leader T Harish Rao and other attended the ceremony. According to a notification issued by Governor, Owaisi will perform the duties of the speaker till a speaker is elected under Article 178 of the constitution of India.
Being the senior most member of the assembly, the AIMIM legislator has been appointed as the Pro-tem speaker. In 2018, Mumtaz Ahmed Khan was made protem speaker. In the just concluded state elections he was elected from Chandrayangutta constituency in Hyderabad for a sixth consecutive term. This is the second consecutive time that a MLA of AIMIM has been appointed as Protem speaker. In 2018, Mumtaz Ahmed Khan was made protem Speaker.
The Pro-tem Speaker serves a temperory role, officiating the assembly session until the-elected members are sworn in and a speaker is elected. Once the assembly speaker is elected, the pro-tem speaker’s duties end, which marks the beginning of regular legislative activities under the new leadership.
Telanagana BJP today boycotted the oath ceremony for the newly elected MLAs, objecting to AIMIM’s Akbaruddin Owaisi being appointed Protem Speaker of the state assembly. The Pro-tem speaker is tasked with administering oath to the new legislators.
BJP MLA T Raja Singh, who won from Goshamahal in last month’s assembly elections, said in a video message that he would never take oath as long as he is alive in front of AIMIM. He said he would take oath only after a full term speaker is appointed.
