The Lok Sabha closed its Winter Session Thursday, a day early, after a tumultuous fortnight that saw a security scare, 146 opposition MPs suspended, and the passage of contentious bills, including three overhauling India's criminal jurisprudence.
DMK MP Kanimozhi - one of 14 opposition leaders suspended this afternoon for the rest of the Parliament's Winter Session amid protests over Wednesday's security breach - has criticised the ruling BJP over double-standards in holding MPs to account.
The two men who triggered a massive security breach in the Lok Sabha have been identified as Sagar Sharma, the son of Shankarlal Sharma, and 35-year-old D Manoranjan, the son of D Devaraj, police sources told NDTV Wednesday afternoon.
Six people were involved in the planning and execution of a major breach in Parliament on Wednesday, police sources told NDTV this evening, prompting a flood of questions on security systems in place in the new building.
