Indian Parliament Resumes with No-Confidence Motion Against Speaker Om Birla

Parliament resumes today after a break in the ongoing budget session. The House will begin with a discussion on a formal motion moved by the Congress-led opposition to remove Speaker Om Birla. The BJP-led NDA's treasury bench is preparing a counter-attack on opposition leader Rahul Gandhi. Today's big agenda is a no-confidence motion against Speaker Om Birla supported by 118 MPs of the INDIA block. The opposition has accused Birla of "outright partying" and said he has suppressed their voice and sided with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The ruling party in poll-bound West Bengal, the Trinamool Congress (TMC), was initially hesitant to sign the notice, but the party has confirmed that its MPs will support the motion. How can the Lok Sabha Speaker be removed?
