Not Allowed to Speak: Congress Lists Reasons Behind 'No Confidence' Motion Against Speaker Om Birla

The Lok Sabha admitted an Opposition-backed motion to remove Speaker Om Birla from office on 10 March 2026. The resolution, brought forward by Congress and supported by other parties, alleged bias in the conduct of the Speaker. The debate was marked by procedural disputes, questions over who should preside during the discussion, and interruptions from both Treasury and Opposition benches. The motion was formally admitted after Congress legislator Mohammad Jawed read out the notice in the House. The required number of MPs stood in support, leading to the resolution’s acceptance for debate. Congress Deputy Leader Gaurav Gogoi opened the debate, clarifying that the motion was not a personal attack on Om Birla but was intended to preserve the dignity of Parliament. Gogoi argued that microphones in Parliament had been "weaponised" to silence Opposition voices and cited repeated interruptions of Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi during key debates. He stated, “We were compelled to bring this resolution to save democracy and the dignity of the Parliament. The Parliament’s dignity and rules have to be protected.” From exposing misinformation to delivering impactful human rights reporting, our newsroom has relentlessly pursued stories that drive change.
