Rajya Sabha Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu on Wednesday suspended six TMC MPs for the day for carrying placards with anti-govt slogans while protesting along with other opposition MPs over the Pegasus spying issue.

He first asked members to go back to their seats and then warned them that they would be suspended from the House. As the members refused to budge, he ordered that those "disobeying the chair and raising placards shall leave the House under rule 255." The Rajya Sabha Chairman, however, did not name anyone and said Rajya Sabha Secretariat will give the list.

The 6 TMC MPs who were named by the Secretariat are Dola Sen, Md. Nadimul Haque, Abir Ranjan Biswas, Shanta Chhetri, Arpita Ghosh and Mausam Noor.
