Crisis on membership of 14 RJD-ML MLAs

The sword hangs on the membership of 14 MLAs on the basis of the recommendation of the Ethics Committee of the Assembly on the issue of heavy uproar in the Assembly in the budget session last year and the misbehavior of Speaker Vijay Kumar Sinha by the opposition MLAs. Amidst the ongoing political activity in the state, it is feared that decisions will be taken on this issue as well.

In fact, the Ethics Committee's recommendation is still under consideration at the Speaker's level. What action has been recommended in that report, it will be known only after it is presented in the House, but if sources are to be believed, there is a danger of losing the membership of 14 accused MLAs.
