Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla announced the addition of six new languages—Bodo, Dogri, Maithili, Manipuri, Urdu, and Sanskrit—for translation services in Parliament, emphasizing linguistic inclusivity.

Lok Sabha expands translation services to six more languages, including Sanskrit

Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla announced the addition of six new languages&mdash;Bodo, Dogri, Maithili, Manipuri, Urdu, and Sanskrit&mdash;for translation services in Parliament, emphasizing linguistic inclusivity.

Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Tuesday announced that translation services in Parliament have been expanded to include six additional languages: Bodo, Dogri, Maithili, Manipuri, Urdu, and Sanskrit.&nbsp;
While addressing the House, Birla noted that previously, translation services were available in 10 languages&mdash;Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Odia, Punjabi, Tamil, and Telugu&mdash;along with Hindi and English.
"Now, we have also included six more languages&mdash;Bodo, Dogri, Maithili, Manipuri, Urdu, and Sanskrit. Along with this, for the additional 16 languages, as human resources become available, we are making efforts to provide simultaneous translations in those as well," he said.
Highlighting India's commitment to linguistic diversity, Birla emphasized that the country's parliamentary system is a democratic framework offering translation services in multiple languages.&nbsp;
"When I discussed at the global level that we are making this effort in 22 languages in India, everyone on the international platforms praised it. Our effort is that, for the 22 languages that are officially recognized, we aim to include them in the future as well," he stated.
However, the announcement faced opposition from DMK MP Dayanidhi Maran, who questioned the necessity of including Sanskrit in the simultaneous translation services. Maran argued that Sanskrit is spoken by only a small fraction of the population and questioned the expenditure of public funds on it.&nbsp;
"It is not communicable in any of the states in India. Nobody is speaking that. 2011 population survey said that only 73,000 people are supposed to be speaking. Why should the taxpayer's money be wasted because of your RSS ideologies?" Maran remarked.
Responding to the criticism, Speaker Om Birla strongly defended the decision, questioning Maran&rsquo;s objection to Sanskrit&rsquo;s inclusion. "This is India, whose 'Mool Bhasha' has been Sanskrit. That's why we mentioned 22 languages, not just Sanskrit. Why did you have an issue with Sanskrit?" Birla asked.

TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee submitted a written apology on Thursday for his remarks against Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, which he had also apologized for in the House. 

Kalyan Banerjee Apologises For Remarks Against Jyotiraditya Scindia 

Scindia emphasized the importance of maintaining self-respect and promised a response to any personal attacks.

TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee submitted a written apology on Thursday for his remarks against Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, which he had also apologized for in the House. Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla informed the House that the apology had been given both in writing and verbally.
The issue arose when some members of the ruling alliance raised concerns about Banerjee's comments as soon as the House convened. Birla intervened, stating that such remarks were unfortunate and underscoring that personal attacks against any member were inappropriate, especially when directed at women. He emphasized that while disagreements were part of democracy, dignity and respect should always be upheld.
Banerjee&rsquo;s comments were made during Wednesday&rsquo;s discussion on amendments to the Disaster Management Act, where he accused the central government of failing to cooperate during the COVID-19 pandemic. Minister of State for Home Nityanand Rai countered, praising Prime Minister Modi&rsquo;s leadership, while Scindia supported him, highlighting India&rsquo;s global role in aiding other countries during the crisis.
Banerjee's remarks led to a verbal spat and an adjournment. When the House reconvened, Banerjee apologized, but Scindia rejected the apology, stating that while policy debates were welcome, personal attacks on him or on women would not be tolerated. Scindia emphasized the importance of maintaining self-respect and promised a response to any personal attacks.

With no consensus between ruling NDA and opposition INDIA, Lok Sabha will witness an election the Speaker for the first time since 1946.
&nbsp;

Eight-time Congress MP from Kerala, Kodikunnil Suresh, filed his nomination papers on Tuesday for the post of Lok Sabha Speaker, in a direct challenge to National Democratic Alliance (NDA) candidate and 3-time BJP MP from Kota, Om Birla.
This would force an election for the presiding officer of the Lower House for the first time since 1946.
INDIA bloc decided to field Suresh after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) refused to allot the Deputy Speaker's post to an opposition MP, in keeping with parliamentary tradition.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had earlier said the opposition would support the government on the Speaker's choice if the deputy speaker's post is given to the opposition.
Congress leader KC Venugopal and DMK's TR Baalu stormed out of Defence Minister Rajnath Singh's office, refusing to endorse the NDA nominee, after the ruling coalition's attempt to build a consensus failed.
Meanwhile, Birla too filed his nomination for the post of Lok Sabha Speaker, a position he held in the previous House.

Here's a close look at the vast powers of the Lok Sabha Speaker, and why the post is crucial for BJP, its allies TDP and JDU, and even the opposition in the House.

Why opposition calls for non-BJP Speaker in Lok Sabha, as TDP and JD(U) clamour for post

Here's a close look at the vast powers of the Lok Sabha Speaker, and why the post is crucial for BJP, its allies TDP and JDU, and even the opposition in the House.

The first session of the 18th Lok Sabha is underway amidst opposition protest against the appointment of seven-time BJP MP Bhartruhari Mahtab as the Pro-Tem Speaker.&nbsp;
The senior most member of parliament is traditionally appointed Pro-Tem Speaker. Opposition argues that Kodikunnil Suresh, eight-time MP from Kerala and a Dalit leader, should have been appointed to the post.
But all eyes are on July 26 when Lok Sabha members will elect the Speaker, who will conduct the House for the rest of the term. Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and Janata Dal United (JDU) -- both members of the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) -- are vying for the post, but the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the biggest bloc in the alliance, does not want to give it away.
From conducting the House and allowing questions to disqualification of members and presiding over trust votes, the Speaker holds vast powers in the Lower House.&nbsp;
Here's a close look at those powers and why the post is crucial for BJP, its allies and even the opposition in the Lok Sabha.

The 18th Lok Sabha will meet for the first time on June 24 and the session will conclude on July 3.

Lok Sabha Speaker's election on June 26, candidates can be proposed till June 25 noon

The 18th Lok Sabha will meet for the first time on June 24 and the session will conclude on July 3.

The Lok Sabha will elect its new Speaker on June 26 for which notices for motions supporting candidates can be submitted by members by 12 noon a day prior, the Lok Sabha secretariat said on Thursday.
The 18th Lok Sabha will meet for the first time on June 24 and the session will conclude on July 3.
At any time before 12 noon on the day preceding the date fixed for the election, any member can give notice in writing to the secretary general of a motion supporting another member for the office of the speaker, a Lok Sabha bulletin noted.
"In the present case, notices of motions for the election of the Speaker can be given before 12 noon on Tuesday, June 25," it explained.
While first two days will be devoted for oath taking of newly-elected members, June 26 has been fixed for the election of the speaker.
On June 27, President Droupadi Murmu will address a joint sitting of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.
The notice for the motion has to be seconded by a third member. Also, it has to be accompanied by a statement by the candidate contesting the poll that he or she is willing to serve as Speaker if elected.
A member cannot propose one's own name, or second a motion, the secretariat pointed out, citing rules.
A member in whose name a motion stands on the list of business will, unless makes a statement conveying unwillingness to move it, will move the motion when called upon to do so, it said.
The motions which have been moved and duly seconded will be put one by one in the order in which they have been moved, and decided, if necessary, by a division.
If any motion is carried (adopted), the person presiding the proceedings (a pro-tem speaker) will declare that the member proposed in the motion which has been carried has been chosen as the Speaker of the House.
The other motions will become infructuous.&nbsp;

Why TDP and JD(U) want Lok Sabha Speaker's post, and BJP is loathe to give it away

As the first session of the 18th Lok Sabha nears, there's a clamour for the post of the Speaker. Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and Janata Dal United (JDU) -- both members of the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) -- are vying for the post, but the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the biggest bloc in the alliance, does not want to give it away.

Speaker's daughter hits out at trolls over IAS 'backdoor entry' charge

Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla's daughter Anjali Birla has hit out at the trolls who questioned her selection in the IAS. Calling for a law against trolling, Anjali, in an interview to NDTV said that social media posts and rumours affected her initially, but later only fortified her resolve. The 23-year-old cracked the premier exam in the first attempt. Her name is also on the merit roll for Civil Services (Main) Examination 2019.
