India's Parliament Suspends 141 Opposition Members, Sparking Accusations of Democracy Attack

India's Parliament voted on key bills despite the absence of dozens of opposition legislators who were suspended following protests demanding a statement from the home minister regarding a security breach in Parliament earlier this month. The suspension of over 140 opposition members has led to turmoil in Indian politics, with critics accusing the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of eroding democracy. The suspended legislators represented nearly 140 million voters, raising concerns about the representation of the entire country.
