On the Sidelines:
* A united Opposition continued its agitation on Thursday against the suspension of 25 Congress MPs by the Lok Sabha Speaker for 'willfully' disrupting proceedings in Parliament.
* The Congress is largely jubilant that with barely a tenth of the strength of the Lok Sabha they have not only managed to ensure a near washout of the monsoon session but the suspension of their MPs has made rest of the Opposition rally behind them.
