Now while welcoming the decision, demonetisation Jagadguru Shankaracharya Swami Narendranand Saraswati of Kashi Sumeru Pithadhiswar today expressed his concern over conduct on opposition MPs.
According to him the government should take action against them. Marshals shall be used to remove the the shouting MPs disrupting Parliament.
A demand is being raised that those who disrupt the Parliament should not be paid salary.
Allowances of all those MPs who disrupt the Parliament should be cut during the period they disrupt the house.
