Opposition MPs, including those from the India===Trinamool Congress, have submitted a no-confidence motion to remove Om Birla as the Speaker of the India===Lok Sabha. They accuse Om Birla of acting in a 'blatantly partisan' manner, disallowing opposition leaders from speaking, and making unwarranted allegations against women MPs. The motion is scheduled to be considered on March 9, requiring at least 50 members to support it for admission. Both the India===Bharatiya Janata Party and the India===Indian National Congress have issued whips to their respective India===Lok Sabha MPs to ensure their presence. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has publicly praised Om Birla's conduct, emphasizing his impartiality. Despite the opposition's efforts, the motion is expected to be defeated due to the ruling India===Bharatiya Janata Party's majority in the India===Lok Sabha.
