Parliament panel proposes suspension, not removal, of jailed ministers
A parliamentary panel suggests suspending ministers instead of removing them from office. This change ensures innocent individuals are not permanently deprived of their positions. The committee also proposed defining serious criminal offenses to narrow the bill's scope. Automatic reversal of suspension is recommended if prosecution fails within a set period. Fast-track courts are favored for trying cases involving constitutional functionaries.
