Rajya Sabha panel proposes curbs on MPs undermining authorities

The Rajya Sabha Ethics Committee has proposed clear rules to prevent MPs from undermining constitutional authorities or fellow members through statements in the House or on public and digital platforms. It recommends explicitly stating in the MPs' code of conduct that free speech protections must not be misused to harm reputations. The committee aims to address disorderly proceedings and will consult stakeholders for code revisions.
