Amid the ongoing political turmoil in Himachal Pradesh, six Congress legislators, who had cross-voted in favour of the BJP in the Rajya Sabha polls on February 27, were disqualified from the Assembly by Speaker Kuldeep Singh Pathania on Thursday.

The ground for disqualification, however, was their absence from the Assembly when the State Budget and the Finance Bill were being put to vote, defying a party whip to vote in favour of the government.

Mr. Rana, a three-term MLA, said they would move the Supreme Court against the disqualification as many of his colleagues did not even get proper notice from the Speaker’s office. The motion for disqualification was moved by State Parliamentary Affairs Minister Harshwardhan.
