The group, including Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi Gandhi, gathered to plan the non-confidence motion against Om Birla. However, there have been no formal notice with 50 MPs’ signatures tabled yet.

The ruling NDA and its allies have dismissed the allegations as a stalling tactic amid ongoing protests over the recent India-US trade deal, which the opposition as well as several critics call a compromise on India’s interests without parliamentary review.
