Maharashtra Speaker suspends five Congress MLAs for two years

Five Congress legislators were today suspended by Maharashtra Assembly Speaker Haribhau Bagde for two years for allegedly heckling and physically stopping Governor C Vidyasagar Rao as he entered the Vidhan Bhawan today.
Revenue minister Eknath Khadse proposed their suspension saying that the Governor had received "injuries" on his left hand during the incident.
Congress MLAs who have been suspended are Jaykumar Gore, Rahul Bondre, Abdul Sattar, Amar Kale and Virendra Jagtap.
A House panel is set to probe the incident and submit its report during the winter session of the legislature.
