Parliamentarians protest mass suspensions by Indian government

Opposition parties in India have taken to the streets to protest a mass suspension of their leaders from Parliament.

In the last one week, more than 146 Parliamentarians have been suspended- all of them from opposition parties.

This is the largest mass suspension ever. Critics have accused the Modi government of undermining democracy itself, a charge his government denies, accusing the opposition of deliberately disrupting proceedings.

Neha Poonia has more from New Delhi.


In: 'With the opposition...'
Out: '...very seriously.'
Dur: 57 secs
