Guwahati: Speaker of the Lok Sabha Om Birla, expressing concerns over constant interruption and lack of decorum in parliament and state legislature, said that debate should not lead to deadlock.
Birla, the first Lok Sabha speaker to address the Assam assembly, added that although obstructing proceedings is unethical and unconstitutional, but is much distressing when such interruptions are organized.
"Obstructing the House of Representatives' procedures is unethical and unconstitutional. Disruptions are frequently pre-planned rather than occurring naturally. Such behavior is much more upsetting." Birla said.
