All seven opposition members of the Goa Legislative Assembly were suspended for two days on July 31 after they protested and created a ruckus on the floor of the House over Manipur violence.
Speaking to reporters later, Speaker Ramesh Tawadkar called the behaviour of the opposition bench condemnable. The Monsoon of the Assembly which started on July 18 is scheduled to conclude on August 10.
The suspended members are Leader of Opposition Yuri Alemao, Congress MLAs Altone D’Costa and Carlos Ferreira, AAP’s Venzy Viegas and Cruz Silva, Goa Forward Party’s Vijai Sardesai, and Viresh Borkar of Revolutionary Goans Party.
