August 03, 2015 20:56

Just in: Congress Vice President tweets, "We stand with each of our suspended MPs."

Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan suspended 25 Congress MPs for five days for causing "grave disorder" in Parliament.

"The truth will not be silenced in the case of corruption scams either where the Prime Minister is protecting the guilty. The modi Govt will soon understand that truth cannot be silenced. The ppl of India & Congress Party have shown this in case of land bill."

In a huge setback for PM Modi, his government will reportedly withdraw virtually every change it had made to the existing law on acquiring farm land for industry.
