"I got justice": Raghav Chadha after Rajya Sabha Chairman allows him to attend proceedings following suspension

New Delhi [India], December 4 (ANI): AAP leader Raghav Chadha on Monday expressed happiness over being allowed to attend the proceedings of Rajya Sabha after the House accepted the recommendation of the Privileges Committee that his suspension for more than three months is enough punishment for "violating the rules".
"After 115 days, my suspension has been revoked. After intervention by the Supreme Court, I got justice. We will continue to fight for the rights of the public, raise the issues affecting them and question the government," Chadha told reporters.
Chadha was suspended during the monsoon session of Parliament and was allowed to attend proceedings after a motion moved on Monday by BJP Member of Parliament GVL Narasimha Rao.
In a video, Chadha thanked the Supreme Court and the Rajya Sabha Chairman for the decision that paved way for his attending the proceedings.
"The suspension was revoked through a motion moved in the House. I was kept suspended for 115 days, and I could not ask people's questions during the period. Today, I thank the Supreme Court and the Rajya Sabha Chairman," he said.
Chadha was suspended from the Upper House on August 11 this year after "breach of privilege" after complaints.
The MP was accused of not obtaining the consent of five Rajya Sabha MPs before including their names in a proposed select committee.
He was suspended till the Privilege Committee submitted its findings on the allegation against him for forging the signatures of five MPs in a motion related to the Delhi Services Bill in the Rajya Sabha.
Chadha had moved to the top court, challenging his suspension from the Upper House.
The Supreme Court asked Chadha to meet Jagdeep Dhankhar and tender an unconditional apology.
A bench comprising Chief Justice DY Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra hoped that the chairperson would take a "sympathetic" view of the matter.
The bench recorded the statements of Chadha's lawyer that the MP has no intention to affect the dignity of the House of which he is a member and he will seek an appointment with the Rajya Sabha Chairperson so that he may place an unconditional apology. (ANI)
