Congress MP Shashi Tharoor was changed as the chairman of the Standing Committee for Communications and Information Technology in Lok Sabha by Prataprao Jadhav, a member of the Shiv Sena faction led by Eknath Shinde.
Jadhav was the chairman of the rural advancement committee when the Shiv Sena belonged to the NDA. The celebration split when Eknath Shinde led a disobedience versus celebration chief Uddhav Thackeray and ended up being the primary minister of Maharashtra with BJP’s Devendra Fadnavis as his deputy.
In July, 12 out of 19 MPs of Shiv Sena sent a letter to Lok Sabha speaker Om Birla who, on July 20, acknowledged them as the genuine Shiv Sena in Parliament.
Thank you, Sumathy @ThamizhachiTh, @AnilagrwalMPBJP, @JohnBrittas, @KartiPC & & @MahuaMoitra for this kind act of uniformity. I’m disappointed by theGovt’s uncommon choice to alter a Chairman midway through the 17 th LokSabha. Parliamentary democracy is ill-served by such intolerance. https://t.co/0JVaJ2AY0K
