Bharatiya Janata Party's Om Birla takes on Congress' K Suresh for Sabha Speaker post


As nominations are drawing nearer as the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and the opposition United India could not reach an agreement on the term for the Sabha Speaker post and the Speaker of Parliament, the two alliances have nominated their candidates separately. Parliamentarians will vote for the next Speaker when Parliament convenes on June 26. They will have to choose between Bharatiya Janata Party's Om Birla as the NDA candidate and Congress' Kodikunil Suresh as the Opposition candidate.

Three-time MP from Kota Om Birla and K Suresh, the longest serving MP from Kerala, have filed their candidature for the Parliamentary seat. The nomination process will take place today, June 25, and the elections will be held on June 26.

Om Birla vs K Suresh: Who is winning in the 543-member Lok Sabha?

With 293 MPs in the 543-member Lok Sabha, the NDA has a clear majority. The Opposition Bloc has 234 MPs in the Lok Sabha.

The NDA's vote advantage will see Om Birla become Speaker of the Lok Sabha for a second term.

Why did the Opposition field K Suresh?

K Suresh's nomination as the Opposition candidate came after tense discussions between the NDA and India Bloc over the post of Deputy Speaker. He said the India bloc was ready to support the NDA candidate but only if the post of deputy speaker went to the Opposition.


Rahul Gandhi said Defence Minister and senior Bharatiya Janata Party politician Rajnath Singh had called Mallikarjun Kharge to forge an agreement between the two blocs but talks had broken down over the post of deputy speaker.

 What is the Gaza Strip? What you want to be aware of the domain at the core of the Israel-Hamas war The Gaza Strip has been the focal point of weighty siege for over seven days after Israel sent off retaliatory airstrikes for the extraordinary dread assault by Palestinian assailant bunch Hamas on Oct. 7. The territory — a limited segment of land among Israel and Egypt, close to the Mediterranean Ocean — is home to generally 2.3 million Palestinians and is portrayed as quite possibly of the most thickly populated put on The planet. The 140-square-mile district is generally the size of Philadelphia. Most of the people who live in Gaza are youthful, with practically 65% of the populace younger than 24. ' World's biggest outside jail' Beginning around 2007, Israel has forced an air, land and ocean bar on the Gaza Strip, saying the move is important to protect the country from Hamas' assaults. Gaza is encircled by substantial walls and security barriers. Palestinians are di...

  Hamas is a paramilitary group that has been designated as a terrorist organization by the United States, the European Union, and Israel. The group has been responsible for numerous attacks on Israeli civilians, including children and women. #BarbericHamas #BrutalityagainstIsraeliwWomenChildren #IndiawithIsrael #TerroristHamas  In one particularly barbaric act, Hamas militants attacked a school bus in southern Israel in 2004, killing five Israeli children and wounding several others. In another attack, Hamas militants fired rockets into a residential area in Ashkelon, killing a three-year-old Israeli girl.

The Fourth Geneva Convention prohibits the targeting of civi...

                                          A house damaged in an Israeli strike lies in ruin (Credits: Reuters) While Israel promised to capture Rafah during the Gaza talks, the UN warned against possible attacks. Israel says Rafah is Hamas' last stronghold in the Gaza Strip. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to continue the long-running offensive against the southern Gaza town of Rafah, regardless of Hamas' response to calls for a new ceasefire and the return of Israeli hostages. Hopes for an end to the conflict have risen in recent days, with Egypt once again calling for the resumption of negotiations between Israel and Hamas. But so far there is little agreement between the two sides on the most important differences. Meanwhile, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has expressed concern about Israel's increasing isolation from the conflict in Gaza. Most of Gaza'...
