Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla dismisses any connection between the suspension of 13 MPs and the recent Parliament security breach. In a letter to MPs, Birla deems linking the incidents as unwarranted, emphasizing the suspension's purpose to uphold the House's sanctity. He assures a high-level inquiry into the breach and a comprehensive security review. The security breach on December 13 involved two men throwing smoke canisters in the Lok Sabha, triggering panic on the 22nd anniversary of the 2001 Parliament attacks. Six accused have been arrested, with a mastermind seeking to create anarchy.
