The Privileges Committee of Lok Sabha has decided to ask Congress leader in Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury to appear before it at its next meeting to hear his side on his suspension from the House for “misconduct”.

The committee, chaired by BJP member Sunil Kumar Singh, also appeared to favour recommending to Speaker Om Birla to revoke Chowdhury’s suspension after formally hearing his side at its meeting on August 30, Parliament sources said.

Chowdhury was named by Speaker Om Birla for “unruly conduct” on August 11, the last day of the Monsoon session and was suspended from the membership of Lok Sabha pending a report from the Privileges Committee.
