Rajya Sabha MP Dr Karan Singh is upset with absconding MP and Kingfisher owner Vijay Mallya for bringing disrepute to the Upper House of Parliament.

In his capacity as Chairman of the Ethics Committee, Dr Karan Singh has sent out a questionnaire to RS members reminding them about rules that require they notify changes, if any, in the assets and liabilities furnished by them.

The letter cited Rule 3 of the Assests and Liabilities Rules, 2004, which says that "every member shall notify changes" in their possessions by June 30 every year.

The form sent to the MPs seeks details of immovable and movable property, and details of loans raised from banks, companies and financial institutions by them.

On May 3, the Ethics Committee of the Rajya Sabha had recommended the expulsion of Vijay Mallya rejecting his defence on a case of loan default of over Rs 9,400 crore.

In its 10th report tabled in the Upper House, the panel said, "The Committee hopes that by taking such stern action, a message would reach
the general public that Parliament is committed to take such steps as are necessary against erring members to uphold the dignity and prestige of this great institution."

Finally, Rajya Sabha Chairman Hamid Ansari accepted the resignation of Mallya after he sent a fresh letter with his signature, hours after the Ethics Committee of the House submitted its report, recommending his expulsion.
