Theexpulsion of a Lok Sabha MPfrom Western Bengal raises fundamental questions about how such inquiries and the subsequent process need to play themselves out.
First and foremost, it was ironic and axiomatic that the report of the Committee of Ethics was tabled in the Lok Sabha at noon, and a motion for the expulsion of the said member was moved at 2 pm barely giving any time to Members to be able to apply themselves to the content of the report of the Committee. The report along with its supporting documents and annexes is fairly voluminous.
