Her party said that Narendra Modi’s government was trying to implement a “Gujarat model” of democracy in India. Nine opposition parties joined hands in protest against Bharatiya Janata Party(BJP), India’s ruling party, for the suspension and discussed about boycotting the parliament for five days in solidarity with the MPs who had been suspended.
