New Delhi [India], Aug 28 (ANI): East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC) has passed a proposal to terminate suspended Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) councillor Tahir Hussain's membership as he has not attended EDMC's meetings during its three successive sittings.
Hussain is currently in jail for his alleged involvement in the Delhi riots in February 2020.
The proposal to terminate his membership was passed on Wednesday.
The proposal from the NDMC said that under the Delhi Municipal Corporation Rules, if a member remains absent for three consecutive sittings of the house without giving any information, then the house can terminate membership of the councillor and the ward's post is declared vacant.
It said Tahir Hussain was not present in the meetings of the House this year in January, February (March, April, May in which meeting did not take place due to COVID) June and July, "without giving any reasons."

"Opposition lacks facts for no confidence motion": Anurag Thakur

"The opposition has brought a no-confidence motion against the Lok Sabha Speaker. Rahul Gandhi had the opportunity to speak for as long as he wanted, as time was allotted for his party. However, they lack facts, arguments, and any substantial basis. Today, the opposition stands completely exposed. The nation has seen how some members dance on tables, tear up papers and throw them at the Speaker, use pepper spray, and bring banners into the House. Such members should naturally be suspended according to the rules and should not be given a chance to speak," he said.
