Santanu Sen, Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP, was suspended from the Rajya Sabha for the rest of the Monsoon Session.
This was done because of him being unruly a day after he snatched papers from newly appointed information technology minister Ashwani Vaishnav while he was reading out a statement regarding the Pegasus snooping scandal.
The government sought the suspension of the TMC MP under Rule 256 (2).
