The Chief of Maharashtra Legislative Council’s privilege committee, Prasad Lad, has instructed the Council Secretary to take action against Shiv Sena (UBT) Rajya Sabha member Sanjay Raut, following a breach of privilege motion filed by a BJP legislator.
Mr. Lad has requested that the matter be forwarded to the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha.
In February, Mr. Raut was served a breach of privilege notice for calling the Maharashtra legislature “Chor Mandal” (council of thieves), following a privilege motion moved by BJP MLC member Ram Shinde.
